Appreciate the info on alternative pump seals. Yes the freight is a killer to and from from "down under" not cost effective. Brought some new pumps from this site for $60.00(good value) but add to it $130.00 for shipping, shipping is the cost of a set of pumps.So local sourced pump seals will be real cost effective. Plus cant beat satisfaction of doing it yourself. Thanks again
