Detailed Description

FAG SS2844 is engineered for automatic transmission oil pump sealing where dimensional accuracy and material selection matter. The metal-and-spring construction helps maintain sealing contact, while the polyacrylate sealing material is selected for transmission service conditions. With a bore diameter of 3.234 inches and a seal outside diameter of 3.238 inches, this seal is built to match the specified housing dimensions for the listed applications. This part cross-references BBB Industries 17849 and Four Seasons 4072N for the same application.

The SS2844 part number is also associated with additional GM platforms, including Chevrolet Impala, Buick LeSabre, Saturn Ion, and Oldsmobile Cutlass applications.

What This Seal Helps Address

• Transmission fluid leakage at the oil pump seal area
• Contamination intrusion from dirt, dust, and moisture
• Loss of grease or fluid retention at the sealing interface
• Wear-related sealing issues in high-mileage transmission service
• Replacement needs during transmission pump or seal service

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the transmission application, position, and seal dimensions before installation. Confirm the vehicle’s exact year, make, model, and transmission configuration, since some listed vehicles include notes that require fitment verification. Clean the sealing bore and mating surfaces thoroughly, and inspect the pump area for wear or damage before installing the new seal. For best results, compare the removed part to FAG SS2844 and confirm the bore diameter, outside diameter, and width match the service requirement.

Quality Assurance

FAG designs seals using high-quality materials and works with suppliers to meet manufacturer specifications and FAG quality standards. The seal is built to protect transmission components from contamination and to maintain sealing performance over the life of the bearing and related assembly.
