Front wheel bearing grease seal

[Alaska Jim]

To all you guys with 49-51 Merc's. with stock front suspension's. this may sound stupid, but I don't know any other way to put it. what are you using for the grease seal and where are you getting them. I have tried all parts stores, and the seals are obsolete. all the specialty places (like van Pelt's, shoebox central , and Mercury land etc.) have no listing's. I have not been able to even come up with an aftermarket ( CR, Victor, National, etc.) #. the last time I packed the whl. brg's. I am sure I got them from Napa and they were victor seals, however I cannot find my old paper work ( probably lost or misplaced in the last move 7 years ago). anyone out there with an old seal catalog with a listing for these seals ? if I had a # I may be able to find something by inside and outside diam., although if they are really discontinued and are obsolete, any suggestions on what a person is to do, short of changing the spindles and all? any help and suggestions are appreciated. Keep in mind that these seals are not the same as the 49-51 Ford. Thank You.------Jim
