Oil seal ring on front hub.

Postby Buzzard Wing » Mon Feb 07, 2005 10:36 pm

Is this a 'maint' item?? In other words is there a good reason to replace it?

I had a post the other day regarding the dust cap ( hich was a great help!!!) and I found one side to have 'rusty' grease and slight pitting on the bearings. The wheel did spin well, so the bearings were not too bad. So I commenced to remove the cups (cones) and found this metal ring. I will replace the bearings, cones and seals on this side and repack the other side.

Interesting, but the inside bearing cup is Timken and the outside is a mfg that I never heard of cannot read the inside bearing. Strange, but the front hubs appear to have been maintained differently.... even the cotter pin indicates they were done by different people.

Just wondering if there is any reason to replace this ring. Seems to be in good shape, just a bit rusted on the lip.

I need to order some parts soon and was just curious.
