   Location: Cottage Grove, OR | I have known that the drive axel grease seals were available, but did not know a current item number. I have learned that a current number/description for the seals is SKF 31284 OIL SEAL.
A current item number in Motion Industries catalog for these seals is Item number 01304212, The description is "Oil Seal - 3.1250 in ID, 4-9/16 in OD, .7500 in Width". It may be found through other sources for a lower price.
There are multiple sources for the seal, but you do need to plan ahead as they will probably need to be ordered. As Bill S. has previously recommended, it would be a good idea to carry a set of seals with you in the coach so that if at some point in your travels they are needed they will be readily available.

Just to clarify, I believe the seal referenced in the above link (CL24911) is a smaller seal and is for the slip joint in the wheel drive line.
The one for the stub axel within the trailing arm is SKF 31284 or CR31284 as stamped on the seal itself. |

     Location: Oceanside, CA | CR24911 is what I used for the stub axle seals in the trailing arms. Bought off ebay at this link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/281934066866?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&s...
They were exactly like the ones I removed. |
