We have had a tough time keeping synthetics in the race cars with leather
seals. Now run all rubber with Synthetics.. Match them up at you local
bearing shop. Very cheap and very durable. However in a street car with the
"proper" lubricants the leather seal will last for ages and the one sold by
Roadster Factory is accurate
