Default 4x4 Front Hub O-Ring

Finally found the replacement O-Ring at NAPA that the Ford dealership wanted $ 12.50 for, however it did include a 4x4 sticker (yippee)
The Ford part # F3TZ-1K106-A is replaced by a 3.50" I.D. x 3/32" thickness, Napa part # 727-2153. Hope this info helps somebody if needed.
This is the o-ring between the backside of the hub and the rotor.

How are those NAPA o-rings holding up? I tried this same thing a few years ago with a Carquest o-ring and within 2 years it was trashed. I'm not sure but I suspect it had to do with the material the o-ring was made from. I finally just got a service kit from WARN #39128 (I have a '86 with D28 axle but I think it also had the parts for a D35). Though I think it ended up being nearly $20 at the local speed shop, but it covered both hubs.
