Race works only seem to sell 16mm, 18mm, 20mm

www.raceworks.com.au/fittings/accessories/washers/dowty-seals-5-pack/

i thought the Ural was 17mm drain plug?

Are any of these suitable or where can the 17mm be sourced?

thanks

Personally prefer the copper ones for the sump, GB and final drive drains.

Same happened to me, I got in touch with Clare and re-ordered the copper. That was a while ago, it is possible they don't stock them anymore.
