Dave,
i don't know much about these seals but with exactly the same set up I am interested to know anything about them. It seems you're shaft must be well off line to be wearing out the seal rings so fast (costly). It makes me wonder what condition your cutlass bearings are in! Is there much movement there? Sounds like your shaft has a twist in it. Should you remove it and have it assessed? I'd be pleased to hear if you solve the problem and how.
Good luck,
Alastair
