[jerroldf]

Does anyone know of a source for the front wheel felt washers (P/N 21099) or an suitable substitute.

 

thanks

Order some firm felt from McMaster Carr and cut one yourself with your gasket cutter.

If you know the dimensions, Olson’s will make the for you.

Know nada about an 11A but checking the Club site there is a tech discussion on Oct 31, 2009 that mentions using this seal for the front bearings on an 11A:  SKF Oil Seal 17191 from NAPA 
I will not c&p but if you are a member you can check by the date; if not, then you should be !!
All you do is use search for what you are hunting for and most of the time things happen ~~~

Richard, thanks for the tip, I've been a member for almost 50 years and have been through the tech discussions but completely missed this one. Isn't it always the one you really need that you miss! Thanks again.

I found the  "SKF 40X80X10 HMSA10 RG" seal for my 11A. A bit tricky to install as it has a rubber coating that causes it slip around. Also, don't put it in too deep, flush with the surface of the hub is about right: Puts the seal lip about center of the seal surface of the spindle.
