Detailed Description
FAG SS2492 is a wheel seal engineered for wheel-end protection against dirt, dust, and moisture while helping preserve bearing grease. Its metal spring construction and auxiliary lip support sealing contact, while the nitrile material is selected for durability in demanding driveline and axle service. This seal is specified for rear use on 1978-1980 Ford Fiesta models and should be matched to the exact application, position, and vehicle class before installation. This part cross-references Anchor 3395 and BBB Industries 14214 for the same application.
What It Helps Solve

- Contamination from dirt, dust, and moisture

Installation Notes and Tips
Verify bore diameter, seal outside diameter, and seal width against the original part before installation. Clean the hub and seal bore thoroughly, inspect the bearing and mating surfaces for wear, and install the seal squarely to avoid distortion. Confirm rear position and vehicle application for 1978-1980 Ford Fiesta models before service.
