get CV's from Autozone, lifetime warranty, in town, good CV axles, cheap, always avail, no questions asked warranty exchange

Those seals are just dust boots
the wheel bearings are sealed unit bearings, getting some grime on the backside should not warrant premature wheel bearing failure, that is 110% Detroit axle's fault.
Look at all the 95-01 Explorers running around and 98-11 Rangers and all the other RBV that use the SLA D35 front suspension and sealed unit bearings. You will not find one of these trucks with over 50K miles where those dust seals still exist yet the factory wheel bearings last 200K+
