Glad you like it! Hopefully, as people service their axles, they can reply back with the model year that they have and if the information was accurate for them. My guess is that it’s the same for late 60’s to early 70’s model 1400s. It’ll make it easier for people to repack their wheel bearings if they already have the right grease seal ready to go.
