I don't have a reference guide to provide me with that information, but if you can get me the diameter of the inner hub bore and the diameter of the spindle surface where the seal rides, I can recommend a seal for you, if one's available.
When the diameter of the hub bore and the seal journal surface of the spindle is measured, the dimension needs to be accurate to 3 decimal places, so using a digital caliper like # PTW80157 is recommended. I've provided photo for you showing these dimensions.
