Speedy sleeve on rear wheel bearing

[MFreund]

Has anyone used a speedy sleeve to fix a rear wheel bearing seal? Does any one know the diameter of the bearing or what part number you would use?

When I replaced my 3rd member in December I noticed the groove from a axle seal in it. I used a skf seal thinking it may contact a different part of the bearing. I was dreaming. I have had great luck on harmonic balancers with a speedy sleeve. It appears SKF makes them in almost any size.

Update: I know this may not be the best way to fix my wheel bearing, but it is the cheapest and that is what I need right now.

As before, I had a wheel bearing seal leaking because the seal had worn a groove in the metal. I found that the wheel bearing has a 2.285" diameter or 58 mm. I found that SKF part # for a speedy sleeve is 99219. If you look on ebay they are $99. I found one for $35 at finditparts.com. The customer service was good and part arrived quickly. I removed the axle and installed the speedy sleeve easily. The only problem is the driver for the speedy sleeve has a solid top. I used Drexel to cut a hole in the driver.

It is done, now we will see it it holds up!
