Hey guys, I have a 97 Ranger 4WD and I've been rebuilding the passenger side of my front end. I'm trying to find comprible replacement spindle seal. This is the seal that rides along the front drive axle and butts up agasint the spindle. I believe it's a dust seal, I've searched the numbers and I'm getting all different type of parts from National, Timken etc, a post from here also appears when I search FORSHEDA 10.054, but it's for DANA 44 while I have a DANA 35, while I understand they share simlar parts. Just need confirmation.

try this site. I did not go into it.

 
SBK4 is the part number for the part set from Autozone. Has the dust seal, spindle seal, and a new needle bearing for the spindle
 
I was gonna say, it's far easier to get it together like that.^

If you don't, it's possible to get a stack of parts that don't fit together. BTDT

Can you tell me what any of this is. I see the needle bearing and I understand that's inside the spindle. But that larger on seal on the bottom left doesn't seem to match, the lip also seems at an angle? What are those other parts go to? Do they go behind the needle bearing? I haven't taken my needle bearing out. I've been keeping it in there and I've moved it with my fingers and it seems to be good, however, I'm not against replacing it.

Audio isn’t great but here is a video I did awhile back on doing the SBK-4 kit. I didn’t use the needle bearing because my bearings were really good still but I have replaced them before. I need to do a better video at some point

Thanks, I just watched your video. So I'm a little confused because when I pulled my stuff apart I never saw that steel ring on the outside of my yoke. I just had the rubber seal. I'll check when I get home tonight but I've taken apart and repainted my front drive shaft and I'm almost certain there was no metal ring there. In terms of the rubber, seal does it go in either direction? Thanks

Depending on who made the seal depends on if it’s steel or rubber

The rubber seal that goes in the spindle against the bearing goes the groove side out. The rubber piece on the stub shaft goes flat side against the steel
