Possible Solution

I went and purchased a digital caliper after reading how none of you experienced any problems. I started doing some measurements and realized the hub, with bearings/races and grease seals installed should not fit on the slightly raised area on the spindle. I've ordered the correct size grease seal and won't be able to test my theory until I re-install the hub. I also realized that the original bearing inner race is actually slightly too big for this particular application. That would explain the areas of discoloration I found on the inner race of the large bearing. The inner race was rotating on the spindle. Wondering what the other issues i'll face when doing the other three wheels.
