So maybe the rubber seal has some flex in it that the metal casing does not.
Funny, I was just thinking that. I wonder how long it'll be before the OEM part design gets changed, or if it will. If this is effecting the whiteline parts with the same bearing other then the seal, it's sure to have some effect on the OEM parts.
@Racecomp Engineering Andy or Myles, if you have the parts handy, could you take a look and give an educated guess about the machine-ability of the built in washer? Do you know of any reason why the older two piece design wouldn't work, ie. is it taller? Thanks
