Looks like they've got the TM's back online. I'm not sure what part it would be in, but I'd check in TM9-2320-386-24-1-1 or TM9-2320-386-24-1-2

The best advice is do a search and read the TM's.

I have heard they are different, are they THAT different from an A2? Is there some kind of seal incorperated with them?

Have fun, plan on a couple days of dirty work. Stuff a banana up the pipe of your CTIS.

I did my A2 (with A3 wheels/tires) and I almost got it right. I used a home made inner wheel bearing seal installer made of 3 inch pvc pipe with a pipe coupler on the one end and a screw in clean out trap on the other to pound in the seals. Worked great on the ones I used it on.

There was a post with pictures about it a few months back.
