okay, so i'm installing my diff here in a few days. i was looking at the output shaft seals, and there are two different components i see. one is a small roundish rubber looking deal, and the other is a metal piece with a flared lip. the metal one almost looks like some sort of bearing. i'm curious. are both of these wear parts? should i just get the new rubber seals, and only replace the metal ones if mine are damaged? thanks.
