Wheel bearing seal

[pvxr400]

Hi,

When changing the wheel bearings, do you really suggest to change the outside seals also? I would say yes but don't want to change them if I don't have to.


Thanks,

Patrick

They aren't really seals, they're just dust covers.

When I got my seals they came with new covers...I guess it depends on which kind you get

Thanks guys for your input. I will not change them.

If you’ve got an old bike with drums like me (’84), you should probably always change them when you replace the bearings to keep grease out of the brakes.
