Subject: OD is the key

I know 1 1/8" is a very common size. It is the outside diameter that is the problem. I was having a lot of trouble figuring out what it actually was using my calipers because it just didn't measure up to any of the available sizes in SAE. The shaft diameter was spot on @ 1.125 but the closest I could get in measurement was 45mm. Finally I put a piece of wood in my lathe and turned it to 45mm. Presto! A perfect fit.

purchase a bearing with the proper ID and an oversized OD, then, take it to a local machine shop and have the OD turned to your 45mm requirement?

Best wishes,
