Nick
I am responding to the list to share the correct # for the felt seal its
022 105 311
this is differant than the one that comes in waterboxer the gasket sets
the felt seal thats provided in the gasket sets is to big and is for a
type 1 gland nut
 part # 111 105 311. the small steel insert that holds the felt seal in
place is not availible from the dealer as far as I know. I found a part
# for a lip seal on the type 2 list that they said works its availible
at any bearing supply house the part # for the standard lip seal is
15k21 x 3v6 btcm I have never tryed to order this so good luck the post
that had this number also said that a pinto 2000 or a 2300 pilot bearing
could be used and that it had a seal built in to it
I have no idea that you mean by release shaft seal
