Detailed Description

FAG SS2883 is a transfer case main shaft seal designed for rear-position service on a broad range of GM, Dodge, Ram, Jeep, and related platforms. The seal uses a polyacrylate sealing material with a metal shell, spring tension, and auxiliary lip to support consistent contact at the shaft and help retain lubricant inside the transfer case. This makes it a practical choice for vehicles such as the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, Dodge Durango, and Ram 1500 when the original seal is worn or leaking.

This part cross-references Gates 18499 and National 710660 for the same application. SS2883 is also listed with interchange reference 4132883100.

What This Seal Helps Address

• Transfer case fluid seepage at the main shaft area
• Contamination from road dirt, dust, and moisture
• Loss of lubricant around the shaft seal surface
• Noise or driveline concerns related to low transfer case fluid
• Wear from an aged or hardened original seal

Verify transfer case type and seal dimensions before installation, especially on vehicles with multiple transfer case options such as New Process 233, 241, 242, 243, 244, and 273 units. The broad fitment coverage includes many Dodge Dakota, Ram 1500, Chevrolet Silverado, and GMC Sierra rear applications, so matching the transfer case code is important for correct service.
