can someone confirm this is the right RMS for 01?
I have a 2001 and this is what they gave me:
From what I've seen in the write-ups, the bottom seal is different. Both of my seals are identical. Hmm....did they change the design for my year?

The write-ups don't say anything but from the pictures in them they used a different seal on the bearing cap. The seal is the same as mine, but has extensions on the ends.

Pictures on some websites that sell the seal show two different seals too.

I never try to out guess the auto makers and parts suppliers,I always pull the part and have them match them,mine has the exstensions as well,in 2001 they changed it.
