The steel ring is a secondary bearing retainer

My seals seem to be ok, they slide in about half way. I just have to find a socket big enough to knock it all the way in. How did you press the bearing and retainer ring on?

I didnt need a retainer because I had sealed big bearings. If I recall correctly. I'll get you a pic when I get home.

did you put an inner seal in before you installed the 3rd member? Without the inner seal they'll be a good chance of an axle leak.

I had this style. Big bearing sealed bearings. No internal seal.
