Revive Your Classic John Deere with Superior Sealing from Vintage Parts Revival
 
At Vintage Parts Revival, we specialize in upgrading vintage components to meet the demands of modern restorations while preserving historical authenticity. Our replacement Buna-N oval baffle plate gasket serves as an equivalent seal for unstyled John Deere tractors, direct D473R replacement part. Unlike the original fiber/cork material, which was sufficient for its time but lacked long-term durability, this Buna-N gasket is specially selected for extended life in applications involving water-based ethylene glycol mixtures or gasoline—perfect for radiator or gas tank seals.
This high-quality gasket provides a reliable seal with reasonable compression from the cap's application, ensuring leak-proof performance under vibration and temperature fluctuations. More durable than the original fiber/cork design, it's an essential upgrade for enthusiasts seeking to enhance the longevity of their tractor restorations without compromising fit or function.

Material: Buna-N (nitrile rubber) for superior resistance to coolants, fuels, and environmental wear
