Problem solved, see attached photo. The .102 cross section O ring is from ebay and the .071 cross section O ring is from Showcars. Stands to reason I would shave the larger O rings, I would suggest if you are replacing axle bearing O rings buy them from Showcars.
All I heard was they are a "trim to fit" application. :crazy

Do you know the diameter of the "O" ring?

Exactly what I was thinking... buy a bag of 100. I would prefer that they be made of Viton, since it is much more durable, and unless you tear one, it will be the last O ring you will ever use on an axle bearing.
