Green bearings and axle seals question

[nick455440]

I have a 8 3/4 that has new axle seals installed near the flanges, also have green bearings that were already in the axles I picked up and they have a small rubber print type seal, should I pull the seals out of the housing, would it hurt to just run it with both seals?

Running the inner seal keeps the gear oil off of the bearing and and prevent leaking.

Yes leave them in

The o ring on the bearing becomes a secondary seal.

Leave the inner seals in
