Looking forward to hearing your results of using it, in the car. What is th=
e original seal material made of? It's not metallic, and feels like plasti=
c or really hard rubber. I was thinking using valve lapping paste could rec=
ondition the mating surfaces that isn't too far gone?

No I left the seal out but left the holder to maintain the bearing spacing.
On one of the others I deleted the holder and turned up a longer bearing s=
pacer to compensate for the additional space.
