Not going to lie... I'm pretty ticked off right now... I had to pay 20+ in shipping for a few crummy washers (seals) for the 5045. Seals 8 and 10 are only 1.xx ea, but don't come in any filter kit I have seen. Anyone have any alternate numbers they would share? I ordered 7 of ea, because 10 of ea were like 25 to ship. I called, and was told "that's the way it is" So, "is that the way it is" or is there a better way. I tried to make the seals with the "Proper" stuff from McMaster and after about a week, they leak so going with the "real deal" (cough, spare-x) stuff please and thank you!
