That option is probably not available to you but it was the right decision for me. I never was able to get the two piece rear seal to not leak.
Yes, budget and import costs are not always aligned.

My truck will never a daily

So use will be a bit restricted.

Cheers Mate!!! and again, congrats on the 94...
Thanks Don, much obliged.

Carry on buddy... looking good.
Little else to do but get on and get it done

No choice really.
