Check out derbycycles.net - not sure exactly the pieces you need, but they look to be a lot less.

I've heard leak proof seals are actually leak prone but it really does depend on how the seals are installed. I got mine from the stealership. Cost 35 bucks for 2 sets of seals, which is all I needed. Got one set in and one on the shelf. :king

These are the ones I got...

Worked great. Easy install and no problems at all. Actually used them on two bikes, mine and a friends, with no issues...
