You need to use the bearing with the seal made into it and it has a o-ring around the outside alsoto seal it completely. Green Bearing Company i believe is the manufacturer of this type axle bearing.

I had same problem on stock 9". Had a bent axle. Put a Moser bearing on axle and problem solved. I had an inner seal, wheel seal and the moser bearing, still got oil out by bearing, but did not leak past moser bearing.

I have a stock 9" with the 3.25 tube(Thunderbird i think), does anybody make a inner axle tube seal for this size axle tube?

Those are all to small for the inside diameter of the axle tube even the big universal one, I tried the the universal one (2 of them) and tried to seal it in with silicone but it didn't work, replaced several outer axle seals and have had no luck. I didn't know if sumone else has run into this problem and had a solution.
