    If you are going to repack the bearings then I would replace the seals just to be safe. You will more than likely bugger them up when you take them out so it's good to have another set on hand.

    You can give Merlin a call at St. Charles Isuzu and he can get the seals right out to you. They're pretty inexpensive, from what I remember, so it's cheap insurance.

    x2 what Mark said...

    IIRC, they're less than $20 for a pair, so why not.

    Also, you can get em at nearly fine purveyor of auto parts.
