Diff seals rear and front

Post by Andy »

Hi, I need diff seals for both front and rear diff. These the seals where the prop goes into the diff. In New Zealand I can only get mid Feb. Any ideas where I can get these parts?

Have you tried more than one place?

They still fit the current models so I really doubt that there isn't a dealer on either Island that hasn't got at least one.

If you get really desperate go to the local seal shop. They will at least sort you out for the Banjo's seal off the shelf.

The last few genuine seals I bought were all ex NZ.

I find that a little hard to believe. Where have you tried? At least Forward Specs and/or Land Rover Spares would have them, and Mamaku would be likely contenders too.

Glad to hear it. I would guess that if you were to rely on dealerships then life would get very frustrating, very quickly.
