Default Measure ID, OD, and thickness

Hi Ian

Having had to replace the hub seals on my HUP years before the internet and hence before MLU. I'm pretty sure that once you clean up the hub you may actually find that it has numbers on it which a good industrial bearing house will be able to provide a cross over to a new modern seal. Also measure the ID x OD x Depth of the existing seal.

With the measurements we should be able to confirm a modern number. It will be interesting to see if is actually different from the seals on a C15A .

Don't be surprised if the new seal is half the thickness of the original.

Cheers Phil
