I would mention to pay attention to the condition of your crankshaft. When I did my front seal, it had been on there so long, the crank had a slight rub/indention on it where the two had been in contact for so long. So when I replaced it, I had to make sure the new seal was riding on a different place on the crank then the old seal. Not sure it would be the same on yours, but it's something to look for.
I was surprised that a rubber seal could do that to a steel crankshaft, but I guess even a little river and a lot of time eventually created the Grand Canyon.
