I see no seal.... please help
I like fixing stuff.

If there is no seal, it could be that the last person who had the hub off couldn't find one and just assembled it without one. Do you have it dissembled. An inner bearing no. would help identify it. | | | | | Joined: May 2008 Posts: 142 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: May 2008 Posts: 142 | Hi katrina, You did not mention if you pulled just one wheel and hub or both. If only one, pull the other side and perhaps the parts you are looking for may be there for a positive ID-assembly? Do you need an exploded view of the front hub? If so, please let me know your truck model identification found on the following link: http://i391.photobucket.com/albums/oo352/46Canopy/GMCDataPlates-1.jpgI may have a good exploded view, and part numbers of what it is that you are missing. Hope this helps, Dale | | | | | Joined: May 2009 Posts: 134 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: May 2009 Posts: 134 | all set thanks guys ... bearing dust cover installed backwards was all bent up. got a new one replaced it and the other cover shield and bearing all line up nice. its always a treat to work on something that was done wrong and no maunal with the up grades on this truck can be found. so its yell for help and lots of internet looking for how too...
