Trying to confirm if Timken seals for the front are the same for each side. Rock Auto lists TIMKEN 710429 as front left. Some other brands list front right ect.
Now Timken lists TIMKEN 100537 for the rear doesn't specify any side.

So main question is, will 710429 work for left and right axle seals on the IFS ?
Also was there a redesign to a one piece seal or was that the pinion seals?

Thanks guys, Jim

I see them as being two different seals. Who's catalog were you looking them up in?

Rock auto. I seen them as being front and rear, but there is only one part number for front left of Timken brand.
 






Pretty sure Timkin doesn't make a single seal. As you can see, they utilize the National Seal part number. Here are the two you need.
