Pete - Only if you have installed the special nose that is cut for the  
double seal. Those are cut deeper so the two seals straddle the original  
location and still allow room for the snap ring to retain it. otherwise, grease  
up one seal, install it and install the retainer. Then plan for next time.

Putting  back together drive train and have been advised to use two seals 
in the  counterbore of the clutch release bearing shaft. In the dia. area 
below the  undercut (area where seal goes) the bore is smaller than it is where 
the  washer locates. The length of this seal dia area is approximately 3/8 
inch and  one seal will use up at least 2/3 of it only leaveing just a small 
place for  second seal to mate to. Is there really any advantage to using 
two seals?  Please help, going back together in the morning.
