Re: Tercel 4WD parts for sale

What Petros said is correct. He didn't mention the level of crime in Seattle, especially in our neck of the woods. Last week alone I had 2 separate catalytic converter theft attempts in less than 3 days. We keep a sharps bin by the garbage to put all the needles that get dumped in our yard. We're tr...

4WD selector shaft seal

While cleaning out some old boxes I found a Unicorn.
Seal has be discontinued for a number of years.
What's the best way to go about finding a reasonable replacement available for all now that I have the original to compare to?
