[QUOTE="dieselfixer, post: 252774, member: 4887"] King It is not normal to have grease all over the hub and tire. The seal should have a snug fit on the spindle this will keep the grease in and the water out, if you can get a double lip seal that is the way to go. If you measure the spindle and the hub with a dial caliper to get the exact size then go to a bearing supply house they will be able to sell you the correct size seal. [/QUOTE]
