I probably have some spares at home if you don't get that part number. They are 
probably Moss or VB sourced seals that don't last so I'd go with the NAPA PN if 
you can get it. I'd love to get those numbers and the pinion seal number as 
well. I'm sick of the cheap seals that the Big 3 sell failing. With all the 
prep I do and Speedie Sleeves, they should last. 

Separating the axles from the hubs is not as easy as it looks. I've found that 
the easiest way to get the axles apart is to leave them in the case, Loosen the 
nut, hook up the largest 3 leg puller you can find and then pound on the end of 
the center post with sharp blows. Often the axle pops off. When that doesn't 
work I can hear the axles giggling at me when I try to pop them on my Harbor 
Freight press. Lucky for me we have a large press at work and it can handle it.
