rear seal

[Michael R.]

Could someone please point me in the right direction for a replacement of P/N C01UC 105759, the rear oil seal for the transmission mainshaft? I have looked at a number of Canadian transmissions, about half of them do not have this seal installed. (Similar to the observation mentioned by Rob L. when discussing the pinion seal C01UC 105387 for Derek E.)

I do not see a transmission main shaft rear oil seal in the June, 1944 edition of the British Chilwell parts catalogue.
However: the May, 1944 Canadian parts catalogue shows the same seal and part number for each of the three Mk. I* variants, as well as the Mk. II* C31 UC Welsh Stowage.

Your first picture, shows a different seal, to the last picture.
One holds the oil in the gear box, the other holds the oil in the diff. Neither of these two seals were in the earlier carriers.
The big one has a larger than normal I.D to O.D. width. This might be overcome by the manufacture of a "seal carrier" if they proove to be unobtainable.

Derrick,

You could try Ross Prince, here in Australia. He specialises in WWII vehicle parts.

I'm fairly certain I bought these for my CMP rear axle.

Dont have his email address with me right now, but can give it to you this evening, if you wish.

Still looking for information regarding this seal.
PM's sent to Lynn and Tony.

Images and narrative updated.

PM sent, with thanks.

Vehicles built before Serial #13087 may not have these two seals. Using the dimensions indicated, one could grind and machine as applicable for installation of the oil seal.
