    Need Bobcat 442 lip seal

    I received my lip seal from periparts Monday of this week. Bobcat received theirs same day. Go Figure. The one from peri-parts is Terex. Same part number and looks identical to the Bobcat one that Bobcat got. On the bright side, I have a spare should Bobcat foul one up replacing it.
