Centerpoint steering bearing housing seals.

[Deleted User]

Can anyone tell me where I can source those rubber backed steel ring seals that are used on the top and bottom of the Centerpoint steering bearing housing, the ones that keepo the grease in and dirt/ water out of the needle bearings? I am going to look online, but if you know what they are called and / or a source, please let me know. Thanks, Kenneth

Hmmm, even Gert Kristiansen didn't know of any replacement for these seals. Looks like there are some modern alternatives, though.....V-rings and or Quad seals.......I am thinking a V-ring cut down and bonded to the steel ring. These old metal bonded rubber seals are often hard as rock, worn down, cracked, scored etc, and do little to keep water and dirt out of the needle bearings or modern bushing replacement.
