What is the differences between them and the bigger sizes? I’m sure it’s gotta be bearing sizes and just overall size differences? I thought I remembered reading somewhere that you could use 47-5? And the only differences were the 4 bolt hole diameters were larger I believe?

Other than that they are the same.
That would be 1951-59.
