What wheel seals do I need?
1990 Bronco, 8.8" axle. Need to replace the outer wheel seals on both sides in the back.
I'm looking on rockauto.com, and they show two different part numbers.
- rear outer oil wheel seal, 11 x 2 1/2 Brakes, 1.618 ID x 2.579 OD x 0.475 thick MC part #BRS40
- rear wheel seal real oil seal kit 2.25 ID x 3.11 OD x 0.469 thick. MC part #BRS79
Is there an inner seal that I'm not aware of? I'm pretty darn sure the axle tubes aren't substantially different in diameter in the same year truck.
Any ideas on this? I'd rather not have to open it up and measure the seal before I order it.
