Axle seal for 800/8000 G series?

I bought a bunch of these recently from this seller:

This seal works for the 800s through the Pro-G's.

Now, for the rear PTO shaft. The original 816 just had a washer and retaining ring keeping it in place, and it moved like crazy. If you look at the IPL for a newer rear PTO kit, Gravely changed to shims and roller bearings. You should be able to use the later parts to lessen the slop, just beware that the exposed bearings are very susceptible to moisture. One of the rear PTO blocks I got recently was completely rusted in place, but it wasn't too bad to free up.

Thanks Marc I went ahead a got a couple of seals. now I see how the newer ones are put together. I was thinking the thrust bearings or bronze thrust washers 1" ID 1/8" thick they would take out the slop but not rust up like the thrust bearings.

I'm willing to bet Gravely didn't want that shaft to stay installed when it wasn't in use.

$8.95? That is robbery.

Teach a man to fish, I guess.

I have very little luck trying to cross any of these parts and I don't trust myself to try to measure them and risk wasting money ordering the generic part. The cheapest online Gravely dealer was $12.
