I am rebuilding my original R4 AcDelco compressor, I am looking for the shaft ceramic seal that is in it now. It has the spring with it. Anyone know where to get one?

shouldn't be hard to find. I probably have one. I'm sure ACkits can get one.

That whole assembly can be replaced with the new style double lip seal used in newer R-4, HD, and V-5 applications..Done it many times...

This is true. Just need to know the shaft size to determine the proper seal.
