Unhappy I can't seem to get my bearings...

Hey, new guy here. I currently rock a 1995 2.7l V6 LX Sedan Accord that needs some serious love, and I'm currently battling with the wheel hub and bearings... specifically my driver front.
Long story short, I'm struggling to find a wheel hub & bearing set that's compatible with my V6 model, but see plenty available available for the 2.2l model of the same year.
I see that on car part websites, they say the parts aren't interchangeable, but I don't see any difference, at least in pictures.. Would it be okay for me to slap on a 2.2l set on my 2.7? Or would it be recommended to find the EXACT V6 model variant?

P.S:
Just realized I mighta put this in the wrong sub-forum... my bad. Probably should have put this in DIY..

This was the correct forum.

I'd get the OEM Honda part number for your bearings from a site like Hondapartsnow.com. Honda can use the same bearings on different vehicles, but they will have the same OEM part number. The V6 Accord is more unique compared to 4cyl accords, so not many parts are interchangeable.

You can also use the OEM number as a cross reference to the proper part if you are going with aftermarket parts.

Okay, gotcha gotcha, I was unaware of that website, I'll take a look at it. Thank you for this info, I definitely needed it
