Rear hub d ring.

Thanks Dom, I’ll probably do something similar because of the limited availability.

Cheap as chips too

Hi Johnny,
Might be a bit of a long shot but I had special seals made for my Lake and Elliot trolley jack - different material but you never know.

They were extremely helpful and many others have used their services using the link on my site. I only bought 2 of the specials and some other 'off the shelf' seals.
They are Barnwell Services (http://www.barnwell.co.uk/) - might be worth an email or call and I'm sure that if they can help it could be useful to others.

From what I can work out the D shaped seal is there to keep out water and dirt in the space between the the two hub parts that will move a little as the drive cushion rubbers compress and move back when accelerating & decelerating. Two narrower o rings sounds a good option. When assembling my 500 hub the D ring even though greased took some effort to push the part fully home.

Thanks guys, great option Ian, definitely worth a try and quite happy to buy a number of them if available to help others out.
