Can anyone tell me what the 2 oils seals are for as supplied with the Targaline gear change kit ?

Any pictures ? Can't see any on the advertising pictures

Are they instead of a gasket under the swivel mount? I didn't use mine.

Here is a pic of ebay but got mine from Cam Lamb,same kit more or less.

No inside diameter too big for the bolts,just doesn't look right,think they should actually go one swivel mount.

I dont see any oil seals in that photo,I can see one o-ring that goes on top of the gear swivel.

Sorry mate, that is what I meant, Cheers !

Blimey, £90.

Is it important to have this o ring on then? I may have to have a look at mine (Mike Phoenix sells them much cheaper than that eBay advert)

On the gear swivel axel, o ring, gear swivel, o ring then circlip. Tight but you can get it on. A lot of people do not bother but hey there must be a reason , think it might be to keep dirt out so then prolongs wear and tear.

Found this post while looking for an answer to the o ring issue. Did you remove the o rings from above and below the swivel. I can understand the keeping dirt out reason but the swivel is very stiff with them fitted

Bloody hell, so long ago I forgot, I think I just used one on top of the swivel and assumed the extra one was a spare.
