original seals are leather pressed in metal. there are several of the vintage parts locations that have them. I wanted neoprene so I went to napa and they were able to mic and find some but were special order and were going to run me near $50.00 ea.! went to local bearing/seal and hydraulic hose supply house and they found CR seals SKF 18258 that ran me around $12.00. as for bearings, they are ball bearings, again available from our vintage guys, but there are modern roller bearing with race kits available to fit and replace the originals. tempted but haven't done it. check prices, some are ridiculus, others more reasonable.

If you are missing one component, you'll need an abundance of the others two.
