I bought a set of "OEM" torsion arm seals from JBugs and it looks like they were cut out with a pair of dull scissors, in the dark, by someone using their feet. They were also packed with the lower seal pressed inside the upper causing the seal to mushroom out at the ending making me doubt their ability to actually fit inside a torsion tube. Anyone know who makes a good torsion seal? The ones shown on WW look the same as what I have...
