Rear wheel bearing seal.
I have a 30 Tudor with hyd. brakes. I am cleaning the bearings and re-packing but the seal I received from Macs is way too big. Are the drums different for the Hyd. System? My old seal is about 2 -28/32, the new is almost 3.2" Any ideas where I can get a new seal? I old one is kaput.

Yup, different. Lots of parts houses have the v8 seal. Did you tell whoever you got the model a seal from....that you had hyd brakes and that seal Sacramento Vintage Ford , C&G parts in Escondido, etc |

Re: Rear wheel bearing seal.
Sounds like you need seal 78-1175 instead of B-1175.
