Sometimes the Seal wears a slight groove in the Spindle, thousandth or two is not bad, deeper might bring on a leak/premature wear though. Seen JB Weld, Metal Magic ect used for the build-up, but a Weld build-up and machining will last another 25 years. Just saying they don't give those 'S' spindle's away, so take care of what you have.
