What It Helps Address

• Oil or grease leakage at the sealing surface
• Contamination from road debris, dust, and moisture
• Wear caused by loss of lubricant retention
• Seal replacement needs on front, rear, rear inner, front inner, or inner positions
• Fitment matching for vehicles requiring the SS2636 seal specification

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify bore diameter, outside diameter, width, and position before installation. Confirm the exact vehicle application and engine or axle configuration, especially on Nissan Frontier, Nissan Xterra, and Volvo rear applications where notes may vary by transmission or engine code. Clean the sealing bore and mating surface thoroughly, and inspect the shaft or hub surface for wear before installing the new seal.
