dp

also try Bexhill Gearboxes


did you know industrial bearing suppliers are not allowed to supply vehicle bearings and visa-versa. hence some suppliers can only match size for size.

Bexhill gearboxes rebuilt my 4 speed for £75 many years ago and were able to get rare early Mini gears that no-one else could.

one of those suppliers must be able to get the seal you need.

I've never bought bearings from a car parts supplier, always taken a pattern to a n industrial bearing/drive supplier and matched it ;)
Cheap, better quality, fast :thumbright:

That's what I tried Ademan- It was cheap, good quality, just the wrong bloody size :roll:

I'll try Kent & Bexhill, cheers

Hi db, I'm sure I have one off those seals in my rebuild kit for my hemi box from brewers. If you want you can use it and replace it at a later date as I won't need it for a while :thumbright:
