Downwash77 replied to Downwash77's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Thanks! -
What online sources sell the CORRECT axle wheel seals, I don't have time to get them from napa. I'm reluctant to order them without knowing if they are correct, anyone vouch for a supplier that sells the correct seal? Thanks
