I have had great luck with SKF seals. I compared them to some OEM seals, and they are so close, I can't tell.
The way I wheel my truck, it's likely I'll end up rebuilding the diff before the seals wear out anyway. I think it's like 24 bucks for both seals from Napa.
I think I will pick up that seal installation tool though. I have a lot of friends with 3rd gens, so I anticipate I'll be changing one sooner or later for someone.
Edit - That Seal installer is OUT OF STOCK right now. Got any alternative link?

I just got a message back from Joey and he has 80 of them headed to his anodizer. He gave me an ETA of 2 weeks.
