Yes you were lucky.
Its your jeep do as you please. You know best!
Dont understand why you bothered asking for help.
I just said that jeep were the only car that used a regular rubber seal.
Every other car manufacturer that used the VM 2.5 used a viton seal.
I have spent plenty of time researching it. I guess I could have just asked you!

They run much cooler.
In the summer the jeep runs hotter & the seal looses its flex. When it gets cool in the winter, it goes hard & that causes them to leak bad.~ been there seen that.
I am sure that if you put the NBR one in it will last until you next have it in pieces.
