Wheel Seal for Front Inner Applications

The FAG SS3256 wheel seal is built for front inner wheel-end service on select Cadillac Eldorado and Oldsmobile Toronado applications. It uses a metal seal design with an auxiliary lip and nitrile sealing material to help keep contamination out and retain grease at the bearing.

  • Wheel seal for front inner position
  • Metal seal with auxiliary lip design
  • Nitrile sealing material for wheel-end sealing performance
  • Bore diameter: 3.094 in. (78.588 mm)
  • Seal outside diameter: 3.097 in. (78.664 mm)
  • Seal width: 2.56 in. (65.024 mm)
  • Cross-references National 5123 and Remy 25515 for the same application

Application Details

Compatible with 1968 Cadillac Eldorado, front inner, and 1969-1978 Cadillac Eldorado, front inner. It also fits 1969-1978 Oldsmobile Toronado, front inner. Use FAG SS3256 when you need a wheel seal matched to the specified bore, outside diameter, and width for these front wheel-end assemblies.

What This Wheel Seal Helps Address

  • Grease loss at the wheel bearing
  • Dirt and dust intrusion into the wheel end
  • Moisture contamination around the bearing area
  • Seal wear from incorrect dimensional match
  • Front inner wheel-end sealing issues on Cadillac Eldorado and Oldsmobile Toronado models

Installation Notes

Verify the bore diameter, seal outside diameter, and seal width against the original part before installation. Confirm the front inner position and vehicle year during service, since wheel seal requirements vary by application and vehicle class. Clean the hub and bearing surfaces thoroughly before pressing the seal into place.

Quality Assurance

FAG designs its wheel seals to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications and works with suppliers to maintain FAG quality standards. The SS3256 is engineered to protect wheel-end components from contamination and help preserve grease retention over the life of the bearing.
