do the seals inside the gland nut off the stocker have to be used with the new ones?I've got it apart right now and don't want to do this twice.

The OEM ones have a seal in them but I think that for the OEM ones only.Have you heard of people using them or should I try without them and see if theres any leaks.Thanks alot mike.

Why could they not make these a direct replacement instead of a insert.Would be way easier to install.Thankfully its a one time deal.
