Default Broken new valve seal :(

One of my new valve seals from patriot performance broke 2 the top as i pushed it down onto the stem by hand the spring that goes around the top separated as well as the rubber lip came off the entire top.

If anybody has any new extra seals lying around i'd be glad to come scrap one up- literally only need one lol...if this can be done.

I was originally planning to reuse one of the stock ones, but am unsure if this is a good idea. Let me know

Thanks everyone

Adam

Junior, I got two extra seals from Patriot if you want them. Don't use stock seals with them, that's how inner springs bind up

I'll be home from class tomorrow around 4:30 if you wanna set something up to come and get them or have them dropped off.
