BB-1175 C seal wanted

[Michael R.]

Short notice need: Does anyone in Canada have a spare pair of BB-1175 C grease seals available immediately? A PM is appreciated.

If you don't find anyone with spares, try NAPA part number UBS 31284 . But best to stretch open your wallet because they aren't cheap. Hard to beat the MAC's price on these.

NAPA will also supply them as a scot seal UBS 31323. (Edited to add: the OD of this seal appears to be too large for the Ford application). These don't have the slinger but are only $85 retail/$45 trade vs the $121 retail/$64 trade of the first number I listed.


I might have a spare of older stock in leather I could loan, but I would want the same back in the end. Seems like a lot of the suppliers these days don't include the oil slinger portion of the seal anymore.

E-mail sent, thanks Rob.
Shipping times by USPS out of the US have been quite inconsistent, but generally much longer than their previous standards.

The BB-1175-C grease retainer seal is $21.95 at MAC's. By the time you get one to Canada all in shipping, tax and exchange it is just under $60.00.

I bought a pair of MAC's seals from a dealer in UK, arrived next day and cost was equivalent to US$40 each ! Quite reasonable for a special like this.
