I only see 1 size, but 2 listings. To 01/99 and from 01/99
All 4 stud drums use the same rear bearing. It's a 37mm width with 52mm diameter.
3 stud is the same spec EXCEPT it's narrower at 32mm width.
The gap between the bearing and the thread (the 2mm or so of plain shank on show if there's any) is taken up by the special ridged washer. The nut is torqued against this to hold the 2 halves of the bearing together.
The stub pin has to be immaculate, free from grease which is sticky. Then spray with WD-40. The drum and bearing have to be perfectly straight or it wont go on.
I can't see what would stop it going on...
