If the brake disk and the hub are one piece, use the stock 86-93 bearings. If the brake disk is separate from the hub, it uses 94-up bearings.

If you remove the tire and the brake rotor can be moved around on the studs, meaning it is separate, then you have the SN95 setup and need 94+ hubs. The bearings are not repackable, and you have to replace the whole hub assembly with the studs. They are held on the spindle by a large nut under the dust cap, that is torqued on to like 220 ft/lbs. The nuts are NOT reusable.

If the studs are part of the rotor, then like jrichker said, get the same bearings for the stock 88 model.
