The 025 105 247A is the 2wd seal and is only an oil seal.  On syncros,
it requires 2 different seals.  025 405 248A and 025 105 249A are used
together to make a sand, dirt, oil, and water seal.

Of course the syncro ones are expensive!  Dealer list is $100.90 for the
pair.  I think I need a mask to sell those.

Thank the lord that I don't set those prices!

A few years back I rebuilt a syncro engine and replaced every seal possible
except the syncro specific crank seals.  I was in a hurry and did not want
to wait for the dealer to order them, and the cost seemed high.
Well guess which seal leaked in the newly rebuilt engine?
