rear grease seals

I need rear grease seals for 29 Durant. I have a Napa part number #473237. It does not match the actual measurements I have. My measurments are:
O.D. 2.17+OR- I.D. 1.20
Any help or suggestions appreciated.

Re: rear grease seals

Dave, The information is probably in the web site already, but if the 28 and 29 is the same, the modern style rear grease seal NAPA 17271 worked just fine for my 28 Durant. Not sure about 473237. That is a National part number. Fritz Kuenzel

Re: rear grease seals

Dave, please take another look at your rear seals, the inner seal surface is not the axle but is the surface on the hub and you have to remove the cup from inside the nut, The national 473237 seal should work fine
