Tim,
By dust covers I assume you mean the round cap that goes over the end of the hub nut?
This wasn't included in the wheel bearing kit I bought, so presume it should be able to be bought separately.
Ned.
beware, I've got yellow skin

If it is an oil seal, you will be able to buy one easily from any bearing distributor. Just take an old one or accurate dimensions with you and they
should be able to sort one out. Look in Yellow Pages under Bearing Stockists.

andyps is not a million miles off, it is a standard size and will be available from any good bearing factors. I got mine from Huddersfield Bearings
from stock (can't remember the sizes though), all you need is an old seal or tell them the o.d. and i.d. and they'll get you one (two?) no
problem.
Also for your info, the outer steel caps are available from Rally Design.

If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation
