Can't help with any proven numbers but one thing I found with the aftermarket "replacement" front seals on the 47 is the same thing DeluxCanuck found on his rear seals. ID and OD was perfect but the shell was much too deep. I didn't go the route of shortening the shell as he did since I had to get other items and just ordered proper seals. For anyone needing new, the price for proven vendor seals was only slightly more than I paid for Napa's replacements. Can't say that shell size problem will happen on yours but since so many of the grease seals carried over several years, something to be aware of.
