Pulled apart the front swivel on my County today to sort out the seal, and found that the stub axle seal land is pretty worn.

Tossing up whether to just speedi-sleeve it, or just get a replacement stub axle and be done with it.
Is there any quality difference between genuine stubs and aftermarket ones if I decide to replace it?

I just had a quick look at LRSeries as I couldn't find anyone local with online pricing for them. Genuine is 400% dearer than the aftermarket ones :eek:

ZIf you do go with a speedi-sleeve they last.
I have one on a rear stub axle and it's been there for six years or so now.
