Alright people my rear main seal is leaking so its time to replace it. While its out i'm gona do the trhust bearing and spigot bush as there is a vibration through the car when the clutch is released, Also the input shaft on the gearbox. I'm not gona do the clutch as most people do if it doesnt need doing as i could do with the extra money.

My question is wheres the best and possibly cheapest place to buy them? Ebay doesnt seem to have them all and i found one place that has the rear main seal, input seal and spigot bush but no thrust bearing. http://www.atocauto.com.au/search.asp?pg=1&stext=thrust&sprice=&stype=&scat=&sman=.
if i can get it for less then they have it would be nice but if i cant then so be it especially when there genuine.

Try the bearing companys if Repco, Autobarn, Bursons etc don't have it.
If you have to go genuine, get onto Nizzbits, a vendor on here for the best
price on genuine.

Just had a look on nizzbits website and they have none of them there. We only have repco in town and they wouldnt know the difference between a patrol or a landcruiser. Would an engineering shop have parts like that available we have one in town?
