I'm having a hard time locating new front wheel bearing grease seals. 200 1985

I recently bought some used front spindels with the bearings for my '85 wagon.

My wheel bearings are making noise and haven't been regreased in over 80,000 miles so I thought I would find a newer model in the boneyard with less miles to replace mine with. I found a 90 or 91 (not real sure) with decent bearings and they looked identical to the ones on my car. I went down to the O'Reilly auto parts and bought some new grease seals but when I finally got around to installing the new seals I realized that they were not right. The ones that came off of the 91 were very thin with no rubber. I think they might have been the original two piece seal that Volvo uses but I dont want that type.

I took those seals back and asked the guy if a 91 was different from my 85 and he said that they used the same part.

I then went to another store (I can't think of the name) and they had the exact same part that O'Reilly had. Same part number.

Does anyone know of a good supplier.

I want a good quality seal at a decent price and I don't prefer the two piece that Volvo offers.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
