The Caiman I weighs 37,000, there is no way the Caiman II weighs 54,000. The II chassis weighs 26,000 by itself, the aluminum crew module does not weigh 28,000 lbs.
My '00 has 170,000, runs like a top. Problem is I have to constantly add coolant. So it has a crack in the GM casting somewhere. A GEP is in my future.
Your best bet on the seals is to grab your caliper and get an ID measurement on the bore and an OD measurement on the yoke, and bring that info to your local bearing house for them to get you fixed up.
