Air Box Seal Options

UGH (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

So I just ordered an Air Box Seal from AA and it appears to be way too small.

The seal I got from them is only 3 1/2 " deep. Width seems OK, but my air box is like 4 1/2 " deep or an inch larger than the gasket is.

Before I have a fit and call them, I thought it worth asking if I'm missing how this gasket fits?

Thanks,

Len

Sorry if I hadn't warned you previously Len... but AA is no good. One out of every ten people seem to get their orders filled correctly and the part actually fits. But 1/10 is not a business I want to support. We have better vendors here, like Mark (Mikey914) that need our business.

914 rubber is great - no question about it. I've gotten most of my replacement parts from them - never had an issue - and if something happened to be wrong - Mark will go out of his way to make it right. Mark and 914-R are top notch in my book.

To be fair however, I've also had good results with AA. In this particular case, there were some parts that I could not source anywhere else (short of going to the dealer), and I needed some other items as well (this gasket being one), so I slapped it all on the AA order.

I just got off the phone with Drew and he pulled all of their air box gasket inventory and it seems the last batch was a bad batch. He's gonna get one out of inventory that he's going to fit to a spare air box (to make sure it fits) and get it off to me.

That said, I cool with it - assuming he comes through as he said he would.
