RTU Front crank seal

[FBH1939]

Anyone have the new number or aftermarket number for the EE5363 Front main seal on an R series tractor? I am striking out on all the major places and parts sites...and all of the gasket kits don't have the seals. Thanks

If one of the part suppliers you tried was Welters in Verona Missouri didn’t have it I don’t know. They’ve always had every engine seal I’ve needed

The original shielded type seal is no longer available. It wasn't much of a seal anyway since it was a leather or felt material. I've used a regular CR brand seal just by matching up the bore and shaft sizes. Looking in my cross reference books, EE5363 crosses over to EE363 which crosses over to CR# 20053 which is 2.000 id x 3.061 od x 0.500 thick.

Yes I would try Welters.
