A bearing includes an outer ring with a first outer roller race, a second outer roller race, and a radially inward facing outer ball race. The bearing includes a first and second inner rings that axially abutting one another at an abutment interface. The first inner ring has a first inner roller race, the second inner ring has a second inner roller race that are disposed in an interior area coaxially with the outer ring. A plurality of first rollers rollingly engage the first outer roller race and the first inner roller race. A plurality of second rollers rollingly engage the second outer roller race and the second inner roller race. A plurality of balls rollingly engage the outer ball race and the inner ball race.

A seal assembly for a bearing includes an inner seal member that has an annular ring with a first lobe extending therefrom and a seal receiving surface on a leg extending axially from the annular ring. The seal receiving surface has two seating areas. The seal assembly includes an outer seal member positioned radially inward from the leg and axially outward from the annular ring. The outer seal member has a pivot member which has a second lobe extending outwardly therefrom. The seal assembly includes a retaining ring that has a circumferential groove formed therein. The pivot member is pivotally seated in the groove so that the second lobe is moveable between the two first seating areas.

A rolling element bearing includes an outer member having an outer member interior surface and an outer member exterior surface. The bearing includes an inner member having an inner member interior surface and an inner member exterior surface and a plurality of rolling elements disposed between the inner member and the outer member. The bearing includes a plurality of random-length slug separators. The separators are of a first length, a second length or a third length, which are not equal. One of the plurality of random-length slug separators is disposed adjacent to at least one of the plurality of rolling elements. The plurality of rolling elements are non-rhythmically spaced apart.
