    Series 3 transfer case seals

    Anyone know of a non metallic transfer case seal for series 3? Most everyone sells metallic but a landy mechanic keeps telling me about a non metallic seal, or are they old skool/NLA?

      HAd a bad leak on mine once and did not have a new seal on hand. I do rebuild snowmobile engine and in my leftover part bin I had a seal that had the same dimensions. I did fit it and use it without trouble and the seal was full rubber. The outer part of it was not steel. But the only trouble is that I can't tell for which engine the seal was for. Probably an Arctic-Cat or a Ski-doo seal.

        Some alternates here:


        You can probably take some of these numbers and research their construction.

          Thanks all

          The seal on the output shaft between gear box and transfer case.

          The OEM sea is metal wrapped on outside edge and is a tad too big (overall) to tap in: ~.015"
          Looking for a rubber outside edge seal that will compress. Otherwise gunna pack it in dry ice for a for few hours and get a BFH.
