Detailed Product Overview

This FAG seal is engineered to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications using materials selected for sealing consistency and durability.

What This Seal Helps Address

• Oil seepage at the timing cover or seal interface
• Contamination from dirt, dust, and moisture entering the sealed area
• Loss of grease or lubricant from the bearing or end component area
• Wear-related sealing issues caused by an aging or hardened seal
• Fitment problems when replacing a seal with the wrong diameter or width

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the bore diameter, outside diameter, and width before installation to confirm the seal matches the application. Inspect the shaft and housing surfaces for scoring, corrosion, or debris that could affect sealing performance. Clean the sealing area thoroughly and install the seal squarely to avoid distortion of the lip or spring.

For fitment-specific searches, this part is commonly referenced for 2011-2017 Ford Expedition, 2010 BMW 550i GT front, and 1996-1998 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana van applications. Always confirm the vehicle’s seal dimensions and position before ordering.
