I'm pretty sure John at Mini King does them exchange, however, I did see one of our usual local suppliers had them new. I'll look through the listings.

Are they the 3/4" or 5/8" ones your after?

Another of our (trade) suppliers has them listed as 'available' but they are presently out of stock. I'll call them in the next day or so.

Lindsay at Minisplus has them (or access to them - he redid Marion's brakes) but he's a way for a couple of months I think

But I'm not sure what seal kit they are using as these are NLA from Lockheed.
