Anyone know where in the LA area I should go to seach for an o-ring?
I have a DP steering damper and the swivel clamp that hold the damper body has an o-ring that functions to firm up the swivel. My o-ring went bad, and now the damper body flops around a bit when the front end is turned from side to side.
Went to NAPA auto parts and found a close match, but close wasn't close enough.
Who's got a great selecton of o-rings I can search through?
Thanks,
Norris
If you want to try online, go to McMaster-Carr.com. Carefully measure your o-ring and you should be able to order a match from them.
I scored a bunch of fasteners, o- rings and what-not with matching fastener drawers (Griots Garage stuff) from a friend who no longer wanted/needed them...
Lemme know what size and i'll see if I have it
PM or email me
Thanks lawbreaker.
I'll need something like calipers to measure the darn thing.
I think I found what I need at Home Depot. I'll try it out tonight.
Yeah, the Home Depot o-ring worked fine.
Lawbreaker, thanks for the offer. If you don't mind, I'll keep you in mind if something comes up in the future.

Harbor Freight sells o-ring kits which are great to have around, inch and metric versions.
Very useful to have around
