Need a rear bearing measurement...PLEASE
I am trying to get some custom shafts made for my rear axle full-float conversion. The idea is to use the factory axle seal to keep the fluid in the diff and not let it creep into the hub area. I'd measure this myself but I do not have a spare around to measure.
this polished area where the bearing and seal meet.
Can someone please measure the diameter of the axle where the seal rides? I am pretty sure this is the same inner diameter of the axle bearing, but i cannot find either measurement on the interwebs...
thanks!!!

Thanks
Got a quick reply over on pirate
The band O.D. the bearing sits on is 1.97" / 50mm.
My idea for a shaft seal has been changed, to use a front axle seal with some adapter.

Pump the brakes brutha! Assuming that I'm hearing you correctly, The seal does not ride on the axle itself. It rides on the collar that is pressed onto the axle after the bearing is pressed on. The collar is then retained by a snap ring. I have a 1983 that I have appart right now - it should be the same axle shaft dimensions. I can take some measurements and some pictures for you if you want. I have the axle shaft, bearing cup, bearing, collar and snap ring are all separated.
