Hey gang i have changed out both sides of my rear bearings about 3 years ago. My driver side started making a noise so went to replace it. When i did it before the auto parts store gave me seals that looked like this:
This time however they gave me one that looked like this:
it seemed to fit the same but now i am getting a worse griding noise that before i fixed it.
This is the wrong part, right?
when i changed out the broken one there was a good amount of shavings in the axel shaft tube. i cleaned most of it out with a magnet, but maybe there is still some and thats what i am hearing?
also that axel shaft was a bitch to depress to remove the c clamp dealie? maybe too much debris in there?
i want to lean towards wrong part because i have done this before with no issue, but the orileys said they mustve changed the look to manufacture cheaper.
anyone use these smoother more cylindrical seals before or is the lipped coke can like one the only way to go?
