Wheel bearing axle seals

[Slufoot733]

I am about to repack my wheel bearings and need to get four new grease seals before I start. Does anyone know the part number for the seals? We have a 2010 Montana 3150RL with 6000# Dexter axles. The dealer is a long drive and he wants me to bring the rig there for the work. I can do it myself but I'd like nto have the seals before I start. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Kevin

From someones post back in 2009:

"I e-mailed Dexter with the axle info and they were nice enough to provide not only their part number, but a couple of alternate part numbers too. If you check the back side of the axle you'll find the needed info on the weight rating of the axle and the lot number of the axle. The lot number is a 9 digit number. Dexter said the lot number was towards the right side of the axle, but mine was in the middle."

Seems like the best way to go to me to make sure you get the right ones.

I'm pretty sure the seals are 3 3/8" OD and 2.25" ID. Unless money is no object, avoid ordering direct from Dexter as well as your dealer. Any trailer supply store handles them. I've used TCM (Transcom Brand) 22333TBN for a long time without issue. Here's a sample opportunity to purchase http://www.etrailer.com/Seals-for-Tr.../RG06-070.html They're all made overseas.

NAPA found the numbers on the old seals, they had two different types. There not cheap there either, don't remember how much I payed but the more expense type looked closest to OME.
