Soaked the felt in oil and squeezed it out. Installed the grease seal with the steel backing..... the felt facing the centre of the car. When I torque the castellated nut and D washer to 10 ft/lbs and back it off 1-2 flats the hole for the cotter pin is too far back. Is it possible that the felt packing is too thick? Anyone had this issue and had to trim the felt enough so that the cotter pin hole will line up?
