September 9, 20188 yr comment_715417 Does anyone have the original Toyota P/N, for this seal ? It is slightly narrower than the same seal, fitted to 3K & 4K engines. The OD is 58.0mm, ID is 38.5mm, Width is 8.5mm The 3K & 4K seal is 11mm in width, & cannot be substituted, as they would stick out proud, from the timing chain cover, & possibly rub up against the back of the crankshaft pulley.

September 11, 20188 yr Author comment_715429 Thanks Pete, Actually, 90311038022 was the number I had obtained from a Japanese website, but after spending 30 mins at my local Bursons store, with no luck, I was starting to believe I had the wrong part number. Research last night, found that 90311-38022 is a discontinued item, to be replaced by 90311-38053, with same OD & ID, but 7.00mm width, rather than 8.5mm. Then I found that the 90311-38053 was also discontinued, replaced with 90311-38086, with the exact same dimensions as the 90311-38053. So back to Bursons to get a hold of a 90311-38086. To cut a long story short, a supplier was rung, & advised he didn't have the 7.0mm wide seal, but did have 2 off the same seal, but a bit wider, at 8.5mm wide. As that was the original seal I was after, I ordered both of them, & they will be here in the morning. Oh the joys of obtaining olde spare parts ! Thanks for your help. Cheers Banjo Report
September 11, 20188 yr comment_715430 I would bypass bursons and go to a proper bearing and seals shop....who bursons are probably ringing....BSC or one of those guys. I got all my bmw seals this way, so cheap too. Report
September 11, 20188 yr Author comment_715439 Thanks Dave ! Noted. Don't usually buy seals, as I have had a habit of buying up K Series NOS parts, when I see them on-line cheap; including full gasket sets, which include front & rear crankshaft seals. In this case, I grabbed a seal from my "shelf gasket kit", only to find the 3K/4K seals are several mm wider than the seal for the 5K. I just fitted a new Rollmaster duplex timing chain & sprockets, which I must have purchased 2-3 years ago, for a rainy day. Cheers Banjo Edited September 11, 20188 yr by Banjo Report
September 12, 20188 yr comment_715442 The bearing shops have amazing lists cross referenced to a blinding array of genuine and aftermarket part numbers. And often much cheaper than you would expect. Report
