    2.8 capri hub/bearing dust seal

    Is it possible to buy these without buying a full bearing kit etc. Is there a set of sizes we need to quote to search for these from a bearing supplier etc. Had a look on the usual ebay can't see much but bearing kits and my mate can get these through his shop.

    Thanks

    its only an oil seal, so you should be able to get one by simply reading the sizes off it and going to a supplier of bearings

    Thanks graham, I figured that someone on ebay would supply them separate like they market the bolts etc but nothing only complete kits. I managed to finally find motorsport-tools supply them as a RIX product.

    I went to my local bearing place this morning with the seal still fitted and they can supply them in a couple of days of the reference stamped on them,so watch this space. They are considerably cheaper as well.

    Picked up my seals today and they are a really snug fit on the stub axles but they do fit with a bit shoving and some grease. I assume they will loosen up a bit after some miles. They fit well in the hubs though. £5 all in.
