Hey folks!
I made a mistake and soaked one of my Warn Lock-o-matic M3B hubs in carb cleaner a few weeks ago and am having a hard time finding replacement o-rings for the front cover. Does anyone know where I could find these? I've also read that I can boil the old o-rings and that my make them shrink. Has anyone had any success doing this?

I found some O-rings at the big-box hardware store (had to try several to get one to fit). Had to stretch them to get them into the groove. A bit tight but a liberal amount of silicone grease helped make the knob smoother.

TorkKing has them for the older warn units. The O ring is actually beveled on that outter edge.
