Installation Notes and Tips

Verify transfer case type and position before installation, since this seal is listed for multiple New Process 231, 242, and 249 applications as well as rear-position Hummer H1 use. Inspect the shaft surface for wear, scoring, or corrosion before installing the new seal, and confirm the bore and outside diameter match the housing specification. Clean the sealing bore thoroughly so the seal seats evenly and maintains proper contact.

The design is intended to protect drivetrain components from dirt, dust, and moisture while helping retain grease or fluid at the bearing or shaft interface.
