Bob

If my memory serves me right there were three version of the rear hub on
big Healeys

The ones on BN2 had no 'O' ring. then there was a middle version with a
smaller diameter version fitted in a one sided groove and then the final
version that I guess you have with a full double sided groove for the ring

Best regards

Hi all,<br>
6 months ago my local garage replaced the seal on the O/S rear axle<br>
which was weeping slowly. When I took the wheel and drum off today<br>
everywhere was covered in oil from a major leak. Previously the garage<br>
replaced the oil seal, bearing, bearing spacer, hub lock washer and the<br>
paper gasket. There is no O-ring on this model.<br>
<br>
Does anybody have any ideas what might have gone wrong? I assume the<br>
seal has completely failed. Any helpful advice I can pass onto the garage?<=
br>
<br>
