Front hub seals - Pre 85

[Geeman]

Does anyone know if the felt hub seals on the pre-85 Turbos are the same as the Triumph Spitfire ones?

Thanks

Should be. I think the whole of the upright, stub axle and trunnion are the same.

Not 100% spitfire but definitely GT6

Thanks.  Spitfire and GT6 are the same size.

They are not the same it appears. I got a GT6 pair and compared to my Esprit.  The steel backing ring is slightly taller on the GT6 item and the OD a fraction larger it seems.  I enquired with Ray at R Dent Lotus here in the US and he confirmed and is sending me the seals from his Lotus stock.  So, beware.
