green bearing axle seals

[FredDart]

I just noticed that the stock outer axle seals wont work with my green bearing/yukon axles set up. I bought the bearing kit through summit and the seals didnt come with the kit. Is there a part number for them, I couldnt find any in my catalogs.

GREEN bearing do not require any additional seals.

How come the mopar green bearing kit comes with axle seals then ?

I have the snap ring green bearing, any difference with the flange type?

Thanks

the green bearings should have an O ring on the outside of the bearing that replaces the factory wheel seal.  You can still run the factory wheel seal if you like, you just have to beat it farther into the axle tubes so it will clear the green bearings.

Wait so I've been fighting those stupid rubber seals in the housing ends for nothing?

Time out folks, remember there are 2 types of green bearings. If you have the style where the backing plate is crimped to the bearing, the bearing will be o-ringed. The style where the backing is seperate from the bearing will not have the o-ring, but is supplied with a new inner axle seal. It will have a axle end gasket and the bearing has a snap ring. Either style works nicely. Tom
