The narrow front axle has a steady leak from the bottom. Is the 70212916 (lower seal, seal retainer, upper seal and the washer) assembly still available? Or is the 70202101 lower cork seal all I need? Thanks

I went thru the front end of my narrow front CA with some new bearings and the bottom seal. Within a month, I had gear oil leaking down on the front axle. Since everything worked great, and I could steer with one finger while running the Woods belly mower, I just put grease in it. Corn head grease might be best, but I didn't have any at the time.
