Front Wheel Seal Problem

Ok, I have a 69 c10 6 lug truck. Got new bearings,races,seals and seals stick out past the hub. Still have alot of play. I have replaced tons of bearings on other vehicles before and all those are flush. What could be causing this?

Re: Front Wheel Seal Problem

Could be where you got the seals. I did a complete seal replacement on my 68 six lug couple of years ago and had no problems.

Can you post pics?

Make sure you seated the race all the way in. I have had that problem before.
