Last time I needed them, Scott at Team Triumph in Ohio had them in stock. 330-392-7176 He has all the routine stuff in stock, is inexpensive and ships the same day. Great source for used parts too.

: Years ago I screwed around with a lip
: seal replacement for the felts. You can
: find seals to suit but the problem I
: found was that the seal journal on the
: spindle wasn't suitable for a lip type
: seal.
: I agree with Steve, there's nothing
: wrong with the felts but I have found
: some issues with some of the
: replacements.
: The felts are thicker than the
: originals & can give false endfloat
: readings when you set them up.
: I've also found some with a poorly
: stamped metal that is slightly larger
: OD, & they are a bit difficult to
: fit.

: Rebuilding my front hub/spindles and
: the
: felt seals at the base of the axle are
: shot. Can't seem to find them at any of
: the usual places (VB, Moss, Spitbits,
: Rimmer, etc). Anyone know of a source
: for these (or better yet, a replacement
: piece made of something better than
: felt?)

: Thanks,
