Does anyone know where I can get wheel bearing seals for early type 3's with the felt seal. I measured it up and came up with 2 5/64 x 1 1/2 x 1/4 , are these available or should I try the local bearing shops.

If you don't have any luck in Australia I would give Anthony at ISP West in America an email. They seem to have everything else.

Got some 54 x 38 x 8 mm seals from the local bearing shop and skimmed out the old seal surface from 52.8 up to 54 mm. It fits like it was meant to be there and now I have an easy to get seal.

I should add that the new seal is a rubber lip seal
