1G Transfercase output seals

[Steve92talon]

Where can u find one. I am in the Rockies in BC and the dealership I work at can't order it. No local parts stores list one anywhere in the country. Is ebay my only option and how do i know I'm getting a actual 1g output seal and not a transmission seal. My tcase seized up last night cause I took one too many trips without topping up my leaky tcase. I have a spare but its output seal is even worse missing a big chunk. Without this seal my cars dead for now.

The part number is MR983368. Should search with the part number. You can order it online through any stores that carry Mitsubishi parts like below.

I searched Ebay under that part number and there is only one usa one listed all the rest are from Europe strangely.

How can they have this seal easy available when it's not stocked in the Chrysler dealership anywhere in north America and my provincial parts suppliers say is a 6 week back order item? Ebay dose not even have a Canadian source for it like wtf.... every other seal I bought for my trans was over night. This is the one seal that's impossible to find anywhere so can I trust they actually have one from there website.....?

Probably they didn't check with Mitsubishi.
The links I mentioned above are all US venders except the last link, RTM racing is in Canada. There are more venders in this forum and they carry genuine Mitsubishi parts, too.
Many shops keep consumable parts in stock with them, it's just they don't sell things on eBay often. They also have own parts suppliers, some are American, some are Japanese. And the suppliers have many parts in stock and there are many warehouses in the States. So some shop can drop-ship to you even they or dealership don't have it in stock.

I was shocked that the local big parts store could not get this seal at all. Very strange. Thanks for the supplier list
