Hi,
I don't have any experience with rear diff seals, but this chart might help you decide the type of material based on temperature and chemical resistance:
o rings
The only gear oil I found in that chart is Texaco 3450 gear oil.
If it was me and I'm not saying I know much about the subject, I would probably go for nitrile. I think there's high and low temp varients.
I would definitely get a few more experienced opinions tho.
Just out of interest, where might I purchase one of these chinese ARBs?

You're welcome.
I think after looking at this chart, nitrile o rings have good oil resistance, tensile strength, dynamic and temperature properties.
I have sent an email to a Chinese supplier. Hopefully they will respond.

Can't be a design flaw Ben? ... Must be a copying or manufacturing flaw! :whistle:
