I have bought them out of the Dorman bin @ the parts store for a 44 and they fit much better and I no longer have that problem.
I Will add that proper packing of the bearing is crucial .
When packing always pack from the large end to the small end, do not rotate the bearing rollers while packing the bearing, Then flip the bearing and repeat the procedure insuring that the grease is fully packed into he bearing.
The interesting part here with our manual hub trucks, the auto hubunits have very light torque settings for the outer nut , and hte locking pin worked very well.
If the same method could be made to lock the outer nut on the manual hub....
