Need to replace front wheel bearings on 65 beetle, got bearings from bearing place, but no luck with seals. Are they a weird size? can get some but they are 40x62x11. according to info I got from 1 place they should be 39.95x62.13x11.51. Any thoughts?

Did the bearing place sell you Ball or Tapered roller bearings

I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true
