Hi all,
I just finished up changing a destroyed rear wheel bearing and after putting it all back together, a friend asked if i replace the seal that went behind the bearing. I know in the 1993 - 1996 there is a teflon seal that goes behind the bearing/hub assembly. Do the 1992s have this as well? The Chilton's manual doesn't show this at all.

Yep, I hear you loud and clear and thanks for the confirmation. The attached image which shows a teflon seal is what got me questioning this install.
