Title: Axle seals T8H-5305A - New Look - Availability?
Post by: Paxton on April 14, 2012, 08:50:27 AM
I need to replace my rear axles seals in the next 3 weeks, but I don't want to tear the old ones out and not be able to find replacements.

Does a New Look run a common rear axle with parts readily available?  Has anyone done this recently?

I'm located in Sacramento currently.

Check with Loren Joplin in Perris, CA.  At one time he maintained a collection of GM new looks.  951-943-2354

Paxton -

Right up I-5 from you in Williams is the home of Ted Campbell's Coach Maintenance.

Ted's like Luke, he's probably forgotten more about the GMC coach than all the combined knowledge on the bus boards.

Night owl, doesn't go to work until after 4 pm usually.  Does respond to emails and faxes.  Phone is 530-473-5544

Luke's the other "go to" GMC guy @ 1-888-262-2434, the number for US Coach in NJ.  9 > 5, M>F Eastern.

For both of these guys, having your VIN handy can help make sure you get the right parts (T8H5305A-XXXX).

FWIW & HTH. . .
