The # RG06-050 seal you referenced is compatible with the L68149 inner bearing, but you should confirm it to be sure.

To be absolutely sure, you can get the number off of your existing seals, if they are not torn up. If you look at the photo I have edited for you, you can see where the reference number is located. You might need a magnifier to see the numbers. If the number is not readable, you can use an accurate measuring device like a digital caliper to measure the diameter of the spindle where the seal would be located (see diagram). The RG06-050 seal has an inner diameter of 1.719 inches. The spindle should measure about 1.73 inches in the area where the seal would sit.
