   Stock seals in 2mm are three piece which are junk but the stock 3mm seals are two piece and they are very good quality.
  Dave were they 2 or 3mm seals ???

Hi Ken,
 
I think we were talking about Chuck's most recent problem, not Dave's. 
 
As for the seals, IIRC, Mazda made 2 and 3 piece 2mm seals over the years.  I can't recall which years though.  Looking at the Mazdatrix site, they list 86-95, 2mm, steel 2-piece Mazda seals.  I don't see a listing for 3 piece (maybe because they're junk).  They also list aftermarket 2-piece 2mm seals as well, so if he bought them from Mazdatrix, they could have been non-Mazda seals.
