Detailed Description

FAG SS2609 is engineered to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications for sealing performance in transfer case service. The seal design uses a metal shell with spring tension to maintain contact at the shaft surface, while the nitrile-Teflon sealing material is selected for controlled sealing under driveline operating conditions. This helps protect internal transfer case components from contamination and helps preserve lubricant where the output shaft exits the case.

This part cross-references Dayco 15560 for the same application. It is used across multiple Dodge and Jeep platforms, including Dodge Ram 3500, Dodge Dakota, Dodge Durango, Dodge Nitro, Dodge Ram 1500, Jeep Liberty, Jeep Cherokee, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep Wrangler, and Jeep Comanche in the listed front transfer case positions. The FAG SS2609 is also referenced under global number 413 2609 100.

What This Seal Helps Address

• Transfer case fluid seepage at the output shaft
• Contamination from dirt, dust, and moisture entering the case
• Lubricant loss around the shaft seal area
• Wear-related sealing issues in high-mileage 4WD drivetrains
• Service replacement for front transfer case seal leaks on Dodge and Jeep models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify transfer case type before ordering, since fitment varies by New Process 231, 241, 271, and 273 applications. Confirm bore diameter, outside diameter, and seal width against the original part during service. Clean the sealing surface thoroughly and inspect the shaft for grooves or damage before installing the new seal. For best results, match the vehicle, year, model, and position exactly to the listed fitment.
