    Default Front axle flange gasket?

    Does anyone have a modern parts store number for (or where to buy nos) front axle flange gaskets? I have sourced most if not all other parts for my brake/steering knuckle rebuild, but this one has me stumped

    That gasket doesn't hold back oil like the rear flange. It keeps dust and water out of the bearings. Unless you are going for a totally stock everything. I would suggest your favorite color of RTV silicone because a little water in there will turn your bearings to dust in a few months if left alone.
    Remember if you didn't build it you can't call it yours.

    And if you want the real thing, Memphis Equipment has them at $1.14 each.

    Thanks for the link! I'm planning on using the gasket with RTV on both sides. (I did this on my gladiator and it has held up great)
