Default Seals......

Your best bet is to take the old seals,bearings etc and visit a General Bearing services....aka GBS..... they will measure the parts accurately and search world wide for the item....... one seal inside the front axle could not be found with the proper ID and OD...so we bought the one with the good ID size and had a machine shop turn an adapter in aluminum to fill the gap between the axle tube and the seals...... once pinned in place they never leaked....

They search by size and not necessarily by part number....typically they will find 2 or 3 sources for often great variation in price and various location.... you pick the cheapest for shipping.

Good Luck.
