Keep grit, road spray, and moisture out of the front wheel bearing with the Beck/Arnley Wheel Seal 052-3148 (also written 0523148). This front-position seal is an application-specific fit for the 1953-1955 Porsche 356, 1955-1959 Porsche 356A, 1960-1963 Porsche 356B, 1954-1965 Volkswagen Beetle, and 1956-1965 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.

  • OE-matched fit: built to reproduce the original equipment form, fit, and function for foreign-nameplate applications.
  • Sealing rubber: high-quality rubber designed to keep water and dirt out of the bearing area.
  • Under-vehicle ready: constructed for the under-vehicle environment where it lives.
  • Application specific: sourced and specified for this vehicle.

A wheel seal rides against the rotating spindle/hub to retain lubricant and block contamination; hardened, cracked, or leaking rubber lets grease escape and moisture in. If a worn seal is the cause of grease weeping or a contaminated bearing, this replaces it. Inspect the seal whenever the hub or bearing is serviced.
