Parts diagrams show two upper seals #23 (P/N 356034 --> WP8577376) on the upper centerpost/spin tube bearings.

One seal (not installed) is included with a new tub support.

I recall mention somewhere that the seal design is changed and only one is now needed.  Correct?

New Style Top Center Post Seals

Hi Glen, yes WP changed to a single top center-post seal about a decade ago, the new seal has two sets of sealing lips built into one assembly, I guess if you want to add even longer life to the sealing system you could use two assemblies and have four sealing lips.
