Default Where to get 12 bolt pinion seal?

I have a Moser 12 bolt and the pinion seal is leaking(surprise, NOT)the obvious answer is from Moser but I'd like to know if the seal can obtained locally? I also have the heavier 1350 yoke. Anybody got a part number for the seal? TIA,

Mark

I also have a leaking moser 12-bolt, it has leaked since the day i got it. I also have the upgrded yoke. Is the seal very difficult to replace.

I just replaced mine locally but I dont remember the part number off the top of my head. I'll check and see If I have it in the car in the morning.

Moser will send u a new seal for free. They have sent me two. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

EDIT: BTW the tech there finally told me If I'm having leak problems to leave the front edge of the seal sticking about 1/8 inch out of the front of the housing. If I don't it will leak around the yoke which means it was probably machined wrong and they know this. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[bang head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />

Just figure I'll keep the chain going here, my new Moser pinion seal is leaking like a siv too. Kinda makes me mad, for $2500, that thing should not have ANY problems. Oh well. <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" />

Mine leaked too. The shop that changed it ordered the part from 2 separate companies and it did not fit. Had to get it from Moser. They would not send me a free one. The rear had been on the car for only 2 months <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> I will never get a Moser again, mainly due to their crapy customer service.

Rob SS,

I called Moser today and at first they told me to get the seal locally. I told them that i was told on this board that Moser would replace it FOC. They asked me for the invoice number and said they send one out today and I've had mine in 3 months. Call and complain about the lack of customer service you received. They also said they were going to include a spacer which goes behind the nut which should help keep the seal from leaking. All I need now is a crush washer.
