My understanding from Dave Lenzi with the rear seals, if you press them in flush with the hub the seal will be positioned too far inward and will not seal on the axle. Do not press the seal all the way into the hub, leave it slightly proud of the hub and all is good.

It is the front seals that can touch the bearing and get metal filings into the bearings.

Check with Dave Lenzi to be sure this is correct.
