Bruce,

It should be noted that Dave found a supplier that provided seals that met HIS requirements THEN manufactured the tool to install
them.

The tool may or may not work with Chicago Rawhide / SKF or seals made by other manufacturers.

Richard,
The issue occurs when the seal housing is driven in flush with the hub housing. The trick is to leave the seal housing sitting
slightly proud of the hub as shown in the diagram below:

Dave Lenzi makes a tool to install the seal to the proper depth.
