Detailed Product Description

FAG SS2395 is designed around the dimensional and material requirements of the listed vehicle applications. The seal uses nitrile for the sealing element, with a metal spring and auxiliary lip to support consistent sealing performance where a manual transmission seal is required. Its 2.000-inch bore diameter, 2.004-inch outside diameter, and 1.375-inch width make it important to match the exact application before installation. This part cross-references National 472258 for the same application.

For fitment-based searches, this seal is listed for a 1987-1991 Ford Tempo rear application, a 1987-1991 Mercury Topaz front application, and a 1963-1979 Chevrolet Corvette rear application. If you are sourcing a manual transmission seal for Ford Tempo, Mercury Topaz, or Chevrolet Corvette service work, SS2395 is the catalog reference to verify against the vehicle and position.

What This Seal Helps Address

• Gear oil seepage at the seal interface
• Contamination from dirt, dust, and moisture
• Loss of lubricant from the sealed area
• Wear related to an aged or hardened seal lip
• Service replacement for a leaking manual transmission seal

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle year, make, model, and position before ordering. Match the bore diameter, outside diameter, and seal width to the original part specification, and inspect the shaft or housing surface for wear, scoring, or corrosion before installation. Clean the sealing area thoroughly so the new seal seats evenly and the lip can contact the surface correctly.

Quality Assurance

FAG designs seals to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications and works with suppliers to maintain its quality standards. The seal construction is selected to protect wheel-end and sealed components from contamination while helping retain grease or lubricant over the service life of the bearing or transmission assembly.
