I used that allthread method do do the CAD side seal on mine and the problem I had was I didnt have enough room to sneak in a socket to use for a driver. The seals I got seemed like they needed an awful lot of force to get them to seat so out of desperation I did what the PO did and just RTV'ed the seal in place as best as I could. Its been good since!
Oh yeah, when you replace those wheel hub units, grease the lip so theyre easier to get out next time
