Measure them and buy from bearing retailers most seals are standard off the shelf jobs

i had some seals made by [url= http://www.cityseals.co.uk/ ]city seals[/url] in Sheffield.

didn't take long, and when i tried to pay, they took pity on me, told me to stick a few quid in their charity pot, and say no more about it*.

one of those great little companies that quietly goes about the thankless task of keeping the world turning.

(*i can't guarantee they won't want paying, but i think they could tell i was skint and desperate)

From memory they didnt do a very good job of sealing the forks anyway.

true dat.

but it wasn't really a problem; the forks themselves didn't do a very good job of moving up and down...
