Sealing rings?

[BRUC3]

Im currently building up the front suspension on my buggy, and all the rubbers have perished!

Anyone able to point me in the direction of where i can get the rubber sealing rings for the top arm thrust pins?

Also, on that note, is there a reason why my plates dont line up with the holes drilled in the chassis? Is it okay to just 'elongate' the holes?

Don't think you can get just the seals the top arm, these are just the first I came across http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Mini-Quality-Top- ... 916wt_1161

Not sure I understand what you mean, do you mean the little holes for the oval plates?

And yeah, the oval plates that go over the roller bearings to lock them in..... The 2 bolts that hold that on dont line up with the holes in my chassis...

Good find, as to the plates as long as it's just the little holes you're changing then I see no issues.
