Dimensions 1-1"OD, 5/16"ID, 21/32"High, 2-Body OD 27/32", Flange OD 1 1/4", Flange thickness 1/8-3/16" , Overall height 1", 1/2"ID. I have Prothane's catalog and they don't show either. Thanks, Larry

I think it was a Bosch kit, but it's still a catalog item. Find a store that's been around a while w/ experienced help. Bowtie
