Quite often, I install an oring into the outward facing open cavity of the seal. This has worked best for me over the last 19 years.

Thanks Jim,
Any issues removing the seals once installed backwards to maintain? I would guess you don't have to as the o ring will keep the dirt away from the seal so it should be as easy as wiping them out and repacking with fresh grease, once pushing the bush out.
