[DeTomaso] ZF input shaft seal

[wkooiman at earthlink.net]

The seal is a common part available from any bearing supply store.

Bearing supply stores are common in metropolitan areas.  Just do a google (or yellow pages) search.

Lloyd Butfoy even told me the part to ask for.  It's not like he's going to make a killing on small parts.

I bought all they had on the shelf - 4 or 5.  Buy more than one, just in case you tear it during installation or just in case your local buddies need one.

I think the PN is in the pantera parts spreadsheet.  I don't remember who maintains that file - SO Bill maybe?  At any rate, I'm pretty sure the PN is documented and correct.

It is my recommendation that while you have an engine or ZF out you might consider replacing the input shaft seal. Cost is around $9.00.  Vendor shipping is another matter,  but we've been down that road many times.
