Installation Notes and Tips

Verify bore diameter, outside diameter, width, and rear position before installation. Match the seal to the exact vehicle application and confirm the axle or differential service specification for your Mazda MX-5 Miata, CX-9, CX-7, or Honda S2000. Clean the sealing surface thoroughly and inspect the shaft or hub area for wear, scoring, or contamination before fitting the new seal.
