Front inner seal 53 K

[Orphanauto]

I am working on my brakes, and I need to replace the inner front seal, and the bearing. I got a new bearing with using the old number off the bearing, but can't cross the seal. does anyone know what the new Seal number would be? This is for a 53 manhattan. Thanks.

The old club handbook lists Victor 49640 as the inner seal for all KF.

Thanks Ben for taking the time to look that up for me. My local O'Rielly's didn't have that number and wasn't able to cross it. But we have a smaller Bumper to Bumper dealer, he looked it up in an old National book, the Seal for national is 471831. Does the club have a list of all known updated cross reference numberws for main items like this? Is that part of the Handbook? I've only been in the club a year and don't know, thanks..

Ron, the most current crossover list available is the one that Richard Hansen did and offers throught the bulletin.  The cost is $10 (Region Fundraiser).  It's helped me find a couple of parts so the investment has already paid off.

Thanks Mike, I actually received my newletter today, and noticed it. I will be purchasing a copy this week. thanks again to everyone for the help. When I pulled the drum off to replace the wheelcylinder it was the only thing I needed to do, then when I put the drum back on, it seemed to go abit to closed and the rivits on the drum were scaping when I tighted the drum nut. Guess the seal was old and needed replaced. The brake job is becoming more and more work each time. After replacing the rear shoes and wheel cylinders, I tried to  bleed the brakes, but the line is blocked somewhere, the old wheel cylinders were froozen badly. I bought new lines for the rear today.
