The big 5 or 6 inch oil seals in the front brake drums..... I was quoted up to $60 each..... I walked in, he measured and came back with one off the shelf and apologized for having only one but 36 hours later the second one arrived..... and only 19.95 to boot.

Hey Bob, any chance you have a part number on the front axle seals? There is no part number visible on the one side...on the other it says "INDUSTRIA ARGENTINA" and "0 5 0 2". They are both neoprene and appear to be in good condition. I'm not going to pull them unless I have a new one to go back in and a check around here has come up empty for those seals. Thanks, Derek.
