FAG SS2430 Wheel Seal - Rear Inner

FAG SS2430 Wheel Seal for Jeep Rear Inner Applications

The FAG SS2430 wheel seal is built for rear inner wheel-end service on select Jeep CJ5, CJ7, and Scrambler models. It uses a nitrile sealing material with a rubber seal body, spring, and auxiliary lip to help keep contamination out and retain grease at the bearing.

Designed to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications, this wheel seal supports the demands of wheel-end sealing where dirt, dust, and moisture can shorten bearing life. The FAG SS2430 is a direct-fit style seal for specific Jeep rear inner positions and is identified by OE-style dimensions for accurate service replacement.

Detailed Description

FAG SS2430 is a wheel seal engineered for rear inner wheel-end use on 1976-1986 Jeep CJ7, 1981-1985 Jeep Scrambler, and 1976-1983 Jeep CJ5 applications. This part number is specified for vehicles that require a 2.5-inch bore, a 2.504-inch outside diameter, and a 1.375-inch seal width. The nitrile sealing material and auxiliary lip design help maintain a barrier against road debris and moisture while supporting grease retention at the bearing.

This part cross-references National 7687S for the same application. For Jeep CJ5, Jeep CJ7, and Jeep Scrambler rear inner wheel seal service, SS2430 provides the dimensional match needed for proper wheel-end sealing.

What This Wheel Seal Helps Address

• Grease leakage at the wheel end
• Contamination from dirt, dust, and moisture
• Premature wear caused by compromised sealing
• Noisy or rough wheel-bearing operation linked to seal failure
• Service replacement for worn rear inner wheel seals on Jeep CJ5, CJ7, and Scrambler models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the bore diameter, outside diameter, and seal width before installation. Confirm the rear inner position and compare the old seal to the FAG SS2430 dimensions before pressing the new seal into place. Clean the hub and bearing area thoroughly so the sealing lip can seat correctly and maintain contact.

For Jeep CJ5, CJ7, and Scrambler rear inner service, match the seal to the exact application and position listed above. The part number SS2430 should be checked against the removed seal and vehicle specifications before assembly.
