The Spit/GT6 are thinner felt but the same diameter. The ones from Moss hav=
e too thin of shell and slightly larger. They do not fit very well.

I tried the Nilos seals that Dave Bean Engineering sells. =C2=A0They did no=
t keep the grease in, at least in race situations where it is really hot. =
=C2=A0I=E2=80=99m back to the felt seals. =C2=A0I=E2=80=99ve found the ones=
 that Nigel sells at Spitbits for my GT6 fit best, many of the others being=
 sold are too large to be press-fit.

Has anyone used another type of seal for the felt one that goes between the=
 hub and stub axle flange?


Pain in the royal ass to get it to tighten enough for the split pin and sti=
ll rotate.=C2=A0 Concerned about damage to the bearing too.


Thanks
