First, I buy hard felt from a bearing company; it retains the seal better. Then, I put heavy grease on them before assembly so that they prevent oil from seaping through. After that, I make sure that they are packed tight around the shaft to help with the seal. Then, when I put new brake shoes on I cut shallow grooves on an angle towards the outside of the drum in a way that if the grease did get on the drum surface it would be moved out of the drum when the tractor is braked going forward.
