Seal HELP

[4X4HIGH]

Does anyone have a JB conversions SYE and have the part number for the output seal? The best I can read the number on the current seal it is an NOK brand seal with a part number of UWO194E and Ii found a website that I was able to cross reference that number to an SKF seal 18687 and every dimension is the same EXCEPT the width of the seal. I'm thinking it is a modified seal.

I can check when I get home if you still need to know.

Thanks but I found a seal that works just fine although it's not a double lip seal like the original one. I did find out that JB conversions has that seal made exclusively for them (so they say).

National 472572.

It is double lip.

National 472572.

It is double lip.

That seal IS NOT a double lip seal, I have it sitting in the garage right now.

National seals that start with 47 are non-reinforced double lip seals.

It is the seal that jb conversions told me to use as a replacement.

The 472572 national seal is not the same double lip double spring reinforced seal that comes with the jb sye. It has one spring with 2 lips. It IS a double lip seal. I used it because i couldnt wait a week for one to ride up here from jb. I damaged my original.

It has been on my rig for 8 months and almost 10k miles with zero leakage. I laid eyeballs on it this week.

I have this seal in my hand right this second and it IS NOT a double lip seal. I know there are double lip seals that only have one spring but this is not one of them.

I have the 472572 in my truck and IT IS a double lip seal.

Edit:
Either you have a mis-boxed/labeled seal or you expect something other than what Manufacturers term a double lip seal.

We apparently wont agree on this so i am going to let you continue your search for the elusive ideal seal and I am going to move on to something productive.

Pictures?

I already have my t-case back together and have found a better seal to use than the National 472572 seal so it doesn't matter to me anymore at this point. Also it really doesn't matter if there's a seal or not as the bearing that JB Conversions uses is a double sealed bearing.
