Thanks for all the responses. These bearings were machined in the USA and used by people with tractors used for pulling. I felt they would be heavy duty and hold up better. The outer lip is supposed to be 1 3/8 inch. I have a cheap Harbor Freight digital caliper. I am going to measure the bearing and the hub to see which is out of spec. Should have done that to start with. Some times my brain just doesn't kick in. Think I will try to shim them with aluminum from a coke can. Don't want to buy new wheels unless I have to. Already spent a lot of money for things it needed and some implements. Have a great day.
