Detailed Description

FAG SS2337 is engineered as a steering gear pitman shaft seal for Ford F-150, F-250, F-350, E-Series vans, and related applications listed below. The seal dimensions are matched to the application, with a 43.002 mm bore diameter, 43.231 mm outside diameter, and 32.004 mm width, making SS2337 a direct-fit sealing component for steering gear service where dimensional accuracy matters. If you are replacing a leaking steering gear pitman shaft seal on a Ford F-150 or Ford E-250 Econoline, this part number provides the size and material combination needed for the job.

FAG designs seals to help protect wheel-end and steering components from dirt, dust, and moisture while retaining grease and other lubricants over the service life of the bearing or gear assembly. This seal uses nitrile material with a spring-loaded auxiliary lip to support sealing contact under operating conditions. SS2337 is also referenced by FEL-PRO 12695 for the same application.
