Minor/Marina front hub oil seals

I'm going to be putting marina hubs on the front of my trav.

The swivels have been machined out and marina stub axles pressed in - so it will use marina bearings.

This presents a small issue with the grease seal...

I can either try to find a hybrid seal, or make a tight fitting adaptor sleeve to increase the diameter where the seal sits.

Does anyone know the sizes of the seals, and/or the diameter of the minor/marina oil seal seats so I could make an adaptor?

Thanks

Use a cut back top hat spacer which can be obtained from BM Pt No: MOD118A and which brings the seal seat back to the correct diameter so as to enable the Marina front hub seal to be used.[frame]Image[/frame][frame]Image[/frame]
If you want to make your own spacer I can post the dimensions if required.

BM don't seem to do the spacers anymore... hence the question

Scrub that... I was searching for it wrongly (put a space in the part no)
