Brakes/Front wheel bearing seal questions

My seals also sit proud of the hub, 1/16" - 3/32".

For the OP, you probably ought to replace the adjuster hardware, or at least clean the snot out of it before putting that all back together. If it has self adjusters, the shoes should have been closer to the drum. Look around for a backing plate or drum with the knockout and match them on your truck. Or, you could just match the backing plate hole up to the adjuster wheel. Just make the slot like factory and you'll be able to put those nice plugs in to keep water out.It'll make it easier to work on your brakes from then on.
