JE rings = Hastings rings. Buy the hastings, they are cheaper.

Actually, last time I spoke with the techs at JE they said they use 4 different ring manufacturers.

Just dont use Total Seal....as you know they are ****.
CP rings I like.

I picked up a set of Hastings from Earl about a year ago. I could probably get them for you too, but dont have the p/n for them.
FYI. Most rings have industry standard sizing.

Yes Total seals are pure ****. They came with my Je's so I thought might as well use them in my old setup. Never AGAIN!!!! I setup them up just as per their directions and they still have leak.

Anyone wanna get me some hastings They have been good to me in the past. Thanks for your guys help!
