Detailed Description

FAG SS2680 is engineered to match manufacturer-specific sealing requirements for automatic transmission service. The Viton sealing material is selected for fluid resistance, while the metal spring and auxiliary lip help maintain sealing contact under operating conditions. This makes it a practical choice when replacing a worn or leaking transmission seal on vehicles that require the SS2680 size and profile.

It also appears in applications for the Ford E-350 Super Duty, Mercury Grand Marquis, Chevrolet Equinox, Nissan Quest, Pontiac Torrent, Suzuki Grand Vitara, Suzuki XL-7, Saturn Vue, Nissan Altima, and Nissan Maxima within the listed model years.

What This Seal Helps Address

• Transmission fluid seepage at the seal interface
• Loss of sealing tension from an aged or hardened seal
• Contamination entry at the transmission opening
• Service issues caused by incorrect seal dimensions
• Noise or drivability concerns related to transmission fluid loss

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify bore diameter, outside diameter, and width before installation to confirm the seal matches the transmission application. Inspect the sealing surface for wear, scoring, or contamination before fitting the new seal. Clean the housing thoroughly and install the seal squarely to avoid distortion of the lip or spring.

For fitment verification, use the vehicle year, make, model, and position listed for SS2680. This part is used in rear-position applications on select Ford Crown Victoria, Lincoln Town Car, and Lincoln Mark VIII models, and in additional listed transmission applications across the covered years.

Quality Assurance

FAG designs seals to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications and works with suppliers to maintain its quality standards. The seal construction is intended to protect critical transmission components by maintaining a controlled seal at the service point.
