Personally, I would just order in seals. Do the swivel seals as well. Just inspect the bearings. They are normal Timken bearings and BC Bearing should be able to get them if needed. Also make sure you check the swivel bearings and preload.

Normally, I only do hub seals and leave the swivel/hub and axle/swivel seals alone or take them out. Let the oil flow free.

I'd order
- Hub seals, try to get the earlier style RTC3511 as they are better than the newer style seals.
- Stub axle gaskets
- Bearing lock washers
- Drive member gaskets.
- Swivel seals.
- Swivel/axle gaskets.

If you need anything else, they can be had quickly. Of course having a spare pair of bearings in your toolbox is a good thing....

Caution!!!
Get prices before you order otherwise you could get a big surprise in the way of a large bill. Check out other sources as well. Don't ask how I know:(
