    Clutch push rod seal

    Does anyone know where I can get a Clutch Push Rod seal for a
    1980 Suzuki GS550E ?

    I cannot find any on eBay and the local dealer informs me he cant get them ?
    I cant even find it on a microfiche ?

    Be nice to buy in the UK but if not anywhere ?
    Any ideas ?

    Thoughts would be appreciated,

      Measure the thickness of the push rod, the outside diameter and the thickness of the seal and go to the local industrial seal supply house. Tell them it needs to work in hot engine oil, they will have the right stuff. Should be just a few pounds or so, much cheaper than the same seal from Suzuki, and without waiting a week and paying for shipping.

      I haven't bought a seal, bearing or bolt from Suzuki in years.

      You can just bring the old seal into the seal shop if you don't have a caliper to measure it.

            Seal ordered and thanks

            Cheers for this.
            I got it from a site in UK with part number given for about £7.


            Not bad and thanks.
            I would like to get one from a industrial seal place but alas there is nothing near me.

            I barely dare own up but the microfiche I was looking at, it was correct and due to looking at it the wrong way I didn't recognize the push rod. ...... Yes I should know better but i am having a bad day.

              used screwdriver

              I ended up using a screwdriver to gouge it out.
              I did try to add screws but they would not go into the rubber
              and I decided to risk a screwdriver.

              I gave up stuck in screwdriver just lesser diameter of hole
              and carefully pulled it out.
              Done in seconds with no scraping or damage
              to metal surround.

              Agreed it is simple ! Await new one to arrive.
