If the piston is a 4" like the lated ones I have new neoprene replacements.

Mike, that is a new on on me. I thought all of the DR's came out of Columbia gear. EL owned Columbia didn't he?

The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

Is this a Columbia or a Auburn Dual-Ratio?

I have no idea what they look like. If they are similar to 810/812 vacumn cylinder cups you might do what I did. I worked neat foot oil into the dry leather and it has worked for years now.

Columbia Rear-End Rebuild Question was created by VintageRacer

I am rebuilding a 1932 Columbia 2-speed rear end.

Does anyone know where I can find replacement leather piston cups (or modern rubber ones)?

Any assistance would be appreciated.
