[SEL] OT - Oversized seals

[Curt]

Joe,
Do you have a Dixie Bearings (Applied Ind. Tec) in your town? I believe 
there is a Redi-Sleeve product made to address this problem on your 
truck. It's a thin sleeve that goes over the axle shafts and a new seal. 
Part of the sleeve breaks off after installation. Anyway it is a kit 
designed to address the problem you are having.
