Knuckle seals question

I saw this on Ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/FORD-SUPER-DUTY-F350-F250-DANA-50-60-FRONT-INNER-KNUCKLE-SEAL-DUST-SEAL-KIT-/360898287565?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A2005%7CModel%3AExcursion&hash=item540736d7cd&vxp=mtr

Is this the 4 seals that fix my 2005 Excursion, 4x4? I have read lots of info about replacing the knuckle seal but they all say only motorcraft part numbers. Just making sure this is the kit I need. I will be doing ball joints in the very near future and want to have all the seals in hand. thanks

I am putting new ball joints, and new tie rods. I keep reading everyone suggests replacing the knuckle/vacuum seals while you have it apart. Not sure if my stock ones are bad or not. My esof works great. I have 140k miles but I am 3rd owner. So don't know if they are factory or not. Thanks

That looks like the correct ones, Most of the time the Vac seals get destroyed when you disassemble the axle shafts...

They do look correct. Don't forget about the O-rings. There are a couple of good write-ups on this site for how to do the ball joints. Look at the tech section.
