Hello, I was wondering is there a better option for the front inner wheel bearing seal on a 1954 custom line drum brakes? anyone got some part numbers?
 
This has come up before,try to remove the old seal with out destroying it as much as possible and take it to your parts supplier to match up.On my '54 Customline the one it called for did not match up but the NAPA parts guy figured it out in a matter of minutes.
 
If you can't find the correct seal you could replace the wheel bearing with a sealed type and use a rtv sealant to seal the bearing to the housing, this works find and doesn't leak, I've done this when the sealing area has a groove and won't seal
