Hey Charles,
Nice pictures! How about if you and I post each others pics in our own albums. That way no matter which album they go to, they can see the information all in one spot...helping them understand the full extent of the problem?

better to post them all on one of your sites, just give credit, that way it
will save bdub some storage ( that he has to pay for ;>)

NO. Post them to both places if needed. I got plenty of room for GMC
stuff.

Charles,

Am I correct that Dave Lenzi said that bearing failed in 1000 miles?

I just did a comparison of a pair of new National and Timken 5123 seals.
Both of them are the CORRECT design WITHOUT the curled lip. These seals were
purchased recently from RockAuto, so I do not know how fresh a batch they
are. The Timken seals were in plastic bags, so I have to assume they are
recent stock.

Both brands are identical to each other in design with the exception that
the National seal has the name & part # molded into the rubber. Putting them
side by side, you can't tell them apart without looking very close.

Thanks,
