It is quite common for a groove to develop at the sealing lip at some point due to long-term use. As a result, the new oil seal no longer fits and seals properly. It is not strictly necessary to replace or repair the entire shaft. Take a closer look at the dimensions first. It may be possible to fit with a slightly narrower or wider oil seal next to the groove. Alternatively, using the Speedi-Sleeve repair kit, repair the running surface under the seal.
