Installation Notes and Tips

Verify bore diameter, seal outside diameter, seal width, and position before installation. Confirm whether the vehicle requires a rear inner or rear seal, since the listed fitment includes both positions. Inspect the hub, spindle, and bearing surfaces for wear or scoring before installing the new seal. For best results, match the seal to the exact application listed for your Dodge Dart, Dodge Lancer, or Chrysler rear axle service.
