I upgraded my wheel bearing to Timken, and now it's time to re-pack them. Does anyone have the part number for the Timken grease seals.

I don't have your specific part number as it could be different based on axles (7000# or 8000#) or shoe sizes (2" versus 3").

But, here is an interesting read from page 130 of the Timken Manual on bearing seals:

You may want to review the correct type to use...

Thanks for information Greg. I have the MorRyde suspension along with disc brakes...which doesn't really change hub size. Just want to avoid cheap seals that break down and start leaking. At one time someone had posted the part number...I just haven't been able to find it. Thought someone might have it handy! Thanks again!
