Grease Seal Recommendation for 2016 Forest River Wildwood with Lippert 5,200 lb Axle
Question:
I have a 2016 Forest River Wildwood Travel Trailer. It has Lippert 5200 lb EZ lube axles. I apparently blew out the seals trying to lube the bearings. Im replacing the brakes and seals. I have Part # AKEBRK-7-SA I think is correct for the brake kits but which seals do I need? Double lip please.

Expert Reply:
There are two options for grease seals for the Lippert 5200 lb hubs. The part # RG06-070 which has an inner diameter of 2.25 inches or the pat # RG06-090 if the inner diameter you need is 2.125 inches.
You'd have to measure your spindle or the seal to verify this.
Both of these are double lip seals though.
