521 rear wheel seals

[ratrod63]

Does anyone know the correct part number or where to get the outer rear wheel seals for a 70 521 pickup?

I took my axles to the local machine shop to get new bearings and seals installed. I purchased outer seals from the local auto parts. They sold me timken p/n 1974. These seale are to big on the I.D. They fit way too loose.

I did a search and found a couple people with the same problem but I could not find a answer. Please let me know if yall have any info on this. Thanks

It should be part #40227-32201, that is described as seal-grease, rear axle bearing. Let me know if that isn't it.

That is the number on the old seal. Where do you buy it at?

There are also: seal, oil, rear axle shaft #38212 7300 (same as the 620 as well)

do a outer seal youll need to press the bearing off. thats alot of work.

 

I though of dodin mine also then said, Fuck it as it was leaking oil from the diff on to the brakes. I changed the inner seal that goes on the axle and all was good.

 

Nap has these gaskets also. most are made in Taiwain ,Korea. best to fine one that has 2 lips. As I seen 1 lip ones

I ordered the seals from a bearing company. They came in and fit perfect.
