Correct Replacement Grease Seal For 7000lb Lippert Axle  

Updated 06/18/2025 | Published 08/05/2021

Question:

The seals I purchased for the subject axle are too large, 2.25 ID. I see on your site seals for a 7000 lb lippert with a 2.125 ID. Please confirm if the 2.125 ID seal is the correct one for the subject NV# as I see 2.25 reference for other Lippert 7K lb axles. Thank you.

I reached out to my contact at Lippert and based on the NV 248685 your 7000lb Lippert axle uses inner bearing # 25580, outer bearing # 14125A, and grease seal # GS-2250DL.

Now this grease seal has a 2.250" I.D. which is the same as the seal you purchased, so I do not have a good answer to why yours is not fitting as that is what your axle was designed to use.

I was unable to find an order through us so I recommend double checking the dimensions of the seal you ordered to make sure it is actually a seal with a 2.250" I.D.

@Tim It's super annoying but yeah some of the 7k axles have the grease seal diameter of 2.125 inch and they require the part # GS-2125DL. I wish there was a rhyme or reason for why this is but as far as we know it's random.
