When renewing the propeller shaft U-joints on my 35T the cork seal on the spline section screw cap came out in pieces. Called a local heavy truck parts house near me about a new cork seal. The guy asked the dimensions and immediately said he knew what I needed. Attached pic shows what I got. Took the cork seal out of the metal dust cap and it fit the shaft perfectly. Nice slightly snug fit ID/OD.

    I made a new seal out of leather for mine, using the pieces of the old cork seal as a pattern. It works OK.
