Superior/Alloy USA Axle Seals

Has anyone else installed these front shaft seals on their Jeeps? I have been tyring to figure out if I will need some sort of machined surface on the axle shafts. My axle shafts have some light rust on them and it seems to me that would destroy any seal. I have emailed a few people on ebay who sell them, they just cut and paste the description onto the listing and have no clue what they are selling. I would really like to have a seal on the outer ends of my diff after seeing all the crap in my tubes and some mud in my diff itself.
Thanks,
Rickie

Thanks Death Wobble, that will behelpful.  Just hoping mine will clean up nice enough to install the seals.
