[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 312332, member: 7544"] I'd check to make sure the part of the spindle where the seal is riding on now is the same diameter as where it would have been if left flush with the hub. If it is, then it should be OK. If it's riding on a smaller diameter section of the spindle, you'll have to replace the seal unless your luck is better than mine and you can get that seal out without damaging it. My guess would be that it's riding on a smaller area of the spindle and may be getting squeezed between the bearing and the shoulder that the bearing presses against. [/QUOTE]
