The correct grease seal for a Dexter 2,800 Lb Axle is the Grease Seal part # 10-42 which has an inner diameter of 1.75" and and outer diameter of 2.33". In order to repack the bearings, I recommend using the LubriMatic Prime Guard High Temperature Wheel Bearing Grease part # L11380. If you want, you can use the Powerbuilt Deluxe Bearing Packer part # ALL647646 to make this job very easy.
