A simple spacer ring, attached to the spindle with red LocTite would solve that problem. Just machine the ring to the same outside diameter as the hub or the bearing, and polish it sufficiently to avoid damaging the seal. Made from the correct meterial, it could even be hardened to a similar Brinnell number as the bearing race, although I doubt that would be necessary.
