Ian found out the hard way (= buying the wrong seal), that the Ford F15A seal front hub inner 5", Ford part number C01Q-1190B matches with SKF/ CR 49998 with ID 5" and OD 6.25"

Default Buying the wrong parts

Hi Hanno,

It is easy enough to do, get the wrong part, I have a box or two of them, but measurements in the case of seals are the only true way to go. Even then, take the sample and, if possible, the part it is intended to fit to the shop. I did that with the rear transmission mount and seal and the bearing dealer confirmed my measurements.

Of course, in these days of mail order only without bricks and mortar shops it is often hard to compare parts.

I downloaded the CR Seals Handbook (SKF) and it is a wealth of information besides listing available sizes of seals and Speedi Sleeves. Recommended download for any restorer of any vehicle.

Cheers,

Where did Ian's info come from? Was it the .zip file I posted in Post #10 on page 1, or is there another table? I no longer have Excel on my computer so can't read that table, but Keith's post #19 still has that info brought across on his webpage and it clearly shows C01Q-1190B to be a 5" seal and part number 49998. Where has the conflicting info come from?

Hi Tony,

Going back through the releated threads the correct info was there indeed, but I did not help with muddling it up. The p/n I shared is correct for the seal with the dimensions shown, but that seal does not cross reference to C01Q-1190B. It now turns out I was wrongly informed and have been sold the wrong seal as as well...

Anyway, I have offered compensation and invited Ian to add his lessons-learned to this thread.
