Whenever I need a seal I go to my neighborhood legitimate parts store or NAPA as a last resort and from the Mopar # or the old part number if it had been replaced before, they can look up the od and id and cross reference to a new seal part # I have purchased all of my '52 Dodge, '55 - C300 and '46 Chrysler seals and bearings this way. In stock or one day away. The seals are usually "thinner" and you need to be careful to seat them in permatex or silicone correctly to line up with the polished area of the rotating surface. I have 100's of NOS seals that I refuse to use because the rubber/rawhide/etc is 60+ years old. .Jack Jack Boyle (913) 544 4650 Enjoying the same C-300 since 1967 IMG_0623 small From: Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jonathan Peabody Jonathan.Peabody@xxxxxxx [Chrysler300] Sent: Friday, July 8, 2016 11:12 AM To: Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [Chrysler300] Rear Pinion Seal Hello Everyone, The rear pinion seal took a crap on my 55, so I took the easy way out and ordered the "correct" seal from Rock Auto. Turns out it's not the right part and other online stores like Advance and Auto Zone also sell the same wrong seal (#7216). The seal had a number of 6845 and the mechanic I had do it couldn't get that from anyone. I called NAPA and they had nothing listed for a 55 300 at all, but they did end up ordering the seal for a 55 Imperial and low and behold it's the correct seal #21336. The good news is that the mechanic charged me $100 out the door. My Dad thought that was pricey, but he wasn't the one that was going to be doing the work. Just sharing in case lightning strikes twice. Hopefully I will see some of you at Carlisle next week. My Dad and I will be on the show field.
