Who do you use for ordering Seastar hydraulic steering seals? I bought the cheap ones from Amazon and they only lasted a couple months. Looks like Boats.net doesn't have any. HC5358

Yep, those are the cheap seals from Amazon that only lasted 2 months. And Boats.net still shows out of stock just like they were yesterday.

The original Seastar seals lasted ten years. That's the ones I'm trying to buy.

if those aren't what you want, the ones I posted are factory with multiple holes on end caps.
