In August 2014 I had reported on a front seal for the Onan 6000. I had ordered an Onan seal on ebay and installed it. National 470162R or SKF11806.
The problem is that I installed it and it started to leak badly on the first trip. The Onan package was very yellowed and it was probably very old stock.

I recently checked with a local branch of a national bearing company and they told me that seal was a single lip viton seal and a much better one for the application was a double lip nitrile seal.
This would be CR SKF 11801. I have ordered a couple of them and they will be here within a week. $8.00 each.

If any of you wrote the old number down you should substitute the new number in your records.

I have advised Kim Weeks to put this new number in the GMCMI Parts Interchange.
