'02 F350 Dana60 axle rebuild, know where to buy seals?

[Abitibi]

I'm rebuilding the front axle from a '02 F350 SD and all 6 seals need to be replaced. Am I stuck to buy from Ford dealers or is there better/cheaper place to get them? These sure are pricey! I'm north of Seattle...

Cheers

Thanks for the quick reply!

Here is my parts list for my axle rebuild. I had Randy's do the inner seals when they regeared, so I don;t have those part #'s.

I would price OEM Dana seals just to see...

I put a generic Pinion Seal in a Dana35 once leaked in three weeks....Dana seal was a few bucks more but never leaked..Even said Dana on the seal

Seals are the least of the money and time in the build.

Putting that in your JDM rig, or did you get something new? Ambulance perhaps??

My Patrol came stock with 1 ton axles but these are as you figured out for my next project Funny part is I have the axles and t-case but nothing yet to mount them on! That ambulance is pretty shy and I'm still looking for the right one. At least it gives me time to get some parts ready before madness hits!

So I'm getting OEM seals, $230 for all 6. It's pricey but I can live with it if it keeps gremlins away. I found out there's two type of seals, the old style that just sit on the shafts and can wear them. Then there's the newer style that are basically a seal inside a seal and don't wear the shaft over time which are the ones I got.

Thanks again for all the help!
