    Ken, being a rookie at this can you explain the correct way / direction to install the SKF 15649 seal in the brake drum?  There is a slight conical profile to the rubber on the seal that appears it should be facing the bearing. Is this correct?

    Ken, just to confirm.

    Ken is correct, the SKF 15635 is a bit "tall."  The included picture is of the side that didn't rub, the other side did so ever-so-slightly (only polishing out the part#).  My local NAPA had sold me these a few years ago.  The SKF 15649 fits flush and is a much better way to go.

    Just FYI.
