What Brand of Drive Shaft Seals???

[John Berger]

For those of you who have the recurring leak with the pinion and/or tailshaft housing seal, and if you fixed it yourself, where and what brand of seal did you use? Any recommendations? My local Dodge dealer wants $35. 31 for the pinion seal and $17. 20 for the tailshaft seal. NAPA can get them for considerably less. I'm betting they don't use the same seals as the dealer, either. I think I'm going to replace them myself. I'm getting real tired of seals going bad every 15-20K miles.

Thanks for any and all input
