You will want to measure your spindle to make sure (see accompanying photo) but the double lip grease seal that fits Dexter axles that are rated for 5,200 lbs - 7,000 lbs is # GS-2125DL. If you look at the photo you will want to use a digital caliper such as # PTW80157 to measure where the letter "B" is on the spindle; that will be the inner diameter of the seal. If yours measures 2.125 inches then # GS-2125DL will be the correct seal for you.

On occasion your axle will have an inner diameter that is 2.25 inch. In that case you'd need the seals part # RG06-070.
