For a late model the relevant sizes are 36mm OD and 23 mm ID. that is nowhere near the 8620 seal. The 8620 is only 28.5 mm OD.

I have to question the practicality of this solution. A seal like this needs lubrication, which the outer seal won't be getting. By the time the inner seal fails it is likely that the outer seal will be chewed up from lack of oil.

CR doesn't make a 36/23 seal. So you would need to make a sleeve (and use a 35/23 or 34/23) or buy one somewhere else.

I think I'll stick to the factory design.
