I'm going to change the rear wheel bearings and need to know what parts I actually need. The Microcat diagram is rather 'full' but it looks like for 1997MY I need:
RTC3429 x 2 , Bearing, Rear
FTC4785 x 1 , Seal assembly, rear hub, inner.
WITHOUT digressing into an oil fed discussion/debate is there anything else?

At $3ea, treat yourself to new lockwashers - FTC3179. You may want to upgrade the seal to either RTC3511 (2 lip) or FRC8221 (3 lip) even though you are staying with greased hubs. And, if you want, the axle flange gasket is #571752 - but I normally use decent silicone. Remember to clean up the hub seal running surface so it's nice and smooth. If you have a deep score, there are speedi sleeves you can put over it.
