How many of these wheel bearing seals do I need for my Vanagon?

You'll need four seals in total. You use two seals per rear wheel – one for the inner bearing and one for the outer bearing. So, to do both rear wheels, you need to order four seals.

Will this wheel bearing seal fit my Vanagon?

Yes, this wheel bearing seal fits all 1980-1991 Vanagons, both 2WD and 4WD models. If your Vanagon falls within those years, it's a guaranteed fit.

What's the difference between the inner and outer seals, and do I need different ones?

This seal is the same for both the inner and outer wheel bearings on your Vanagon's rear wheels. No need to worry about which is which; it's a straightforward replacement.

Is this a quality part, or will it fail quickly?

These are quality aftermarket seals, designed to provide a reliable seal for your wheel bearings. Plenty of Vanagon owners have used them, so you can be confident in their performance.

What tools or extra parts will I need to replace these seals?

You'll need basic tools for removing your rear wheels and the hub assembly. You may need a bearing puller or appropriate tools for removing the old seals and pressing in the new ones. It is advisable to inspect your bearings when replacing seals.

Fit was perfect

I was doing the rear bearing and needed the seal. This fit perfectly, no issues.

Good seal, good deal

I just finishe a 4200 mile trip of the southwest USA and before I left I serviced all my bearings and CV joints. The rear are a pain to do but it had been on my list so I hunkered down and bought the necessary parts. These seals are great quality and are a good price.
