Re: Help with grease seal
These felt seals are not 'rocket science'. I would think a creative person could make up something that would fit in tight and have a felt insert that will stop the 600 weight from moving out too far. Maybe a couple of plastic or metal 'washers' where the OD presses into the housing, ID clears the shaft, bond together and or wire together. All it has to do is sit there.

Re: Help with grease seal
if one has the ID and OD i bet there is a modern rubber lip seal thats designed to hold oil in. Especially in the industrial world with upteen million industrial gearboxes that have been made.

Check with a Model T supplier that handles the "TT" truck worm drive seals such as Snyders. I believe the "TT" seals will fit.
