Try searching for a 1 mm wider or thinner thickness. Should be able to get away
with 1 and possibly 2 thicker.

I don't have a lathe or any cool skills to use something like a cnc machine. Shoot.

Any idea where to start looking for them if the one I ordered won't work? I went to honda and he looked through a little book of seals and we didn't get remotely close.

Got them today. The outer diameter won't work unfortunately. Too narrow and slides up and down. Not really sure what to do at this point.

Do as G-Man has done find a smaller seal and get a local machine shop to make the aluminium adapter for you.

Maybe I need a new machine shop, because I'm quite certain mine would tell me to take a hike if I asked them to custom fab something for me without exact plans and dimensions (or aluminum in hand). Even if I had that I think they'd tell me to take a hike haha.

I have NOS seals for the 9mm shafts. Or, I have a machine shop. Or, I have restored clevis lower style shocks. PM me.
