The rear seal they gave me is much thinner than the original seal I removed. The original seal looks like it had a seal and then a leather/rope seal together in the seal body, whereas the new one just has a rubber seal and no leather/rope section. Are the old style seals no longer made and is the single seal correct? Thanks
