Not sure but I'm guessing no. There is Sheldon Brown's table of Japanese BB sizes. It looks like they are all different sizes so you might be able to correctly deduce which one you have from an external measurement of the "overall length". Keep in mind that the "overall length" refers to where the square taper spindle terminates and not necessarily the true overall length. In my case I had a 3T spindle which is 123mm in overall length but as it is the type that has male threads secured by nuts the actual tip to tip length was something like 130mm. I'd probably just remove it to be 100% certain.

Also, I'm curious...how do you know it needs replaced rather than just new bearings/repack if you haven't removed it?
