What This Seal Helps Address

  • Steering gear lubricant loss at the worm shaft area
  • Dirt, dust, and moisture intrusion into the steering assembly
  • Seal wear caused by age, heat, and fluid exposure
  • Leak-related steering gear contamination on Mercury Capri models
  • Restoration or repair of worn steering gear sealing surfaces

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify bore diameter, outside diameter, and seal width before installation to confirm proper seating in the steering gear housing. Inspect the shaft surface for scoring or corrosion, and clean the sealing area thoroughly before assembly. For 1976-1977 Mercury Capri steering repairs, confirm the application against the original seal dimensions and steering gear configuration. Part number SS2208 should be matched carefully to the vehicle’s steering gear requirements.

Quality Assurance

The SS2208 is built for demanding wheel-end and steering sealing requirements, with materials selected to help protect components over the service life of the bearing or steering assembly.
