Detailed Description

This FAG differential pinion seal is engineered to meet vehicle-specific sealing requirements for driveline service. The SS6232 is used at the pinion area to help retain lubricant inside the axle assembly and reduce contamination from road debris and moisture. It cross-references BBB Industries 17667 for the same application. Compatible vehicle coverage includes Mitsubishi L200 rear, Mitsubishi Montero Sport rear, Mitsubishi Montero rear and front, Mitsubishi Mighty Max rear, Mitsubishi Van rear, Mitsubishi Starion rear, and Dodge Ram 50, Raider, and Power Ram 50 rear applications. The part number SS6232 is also referenced by the global number 413 6232 100.

Common Problems This Seal Can Address

• Gear oil leakage at the differential pinion area
• Contamination entering the axle housing through a worn seal
• Grease or lubricant loss that can affect driveline operation
• Noise or wear concerns related to low differential fluid level
• Seal deterioration from age, heat, and road exposure

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify axle position and seal dimensions before installation. Clean the pinion bore and sealing surface thoroughly, and inspect the pinion yoke or shaft surface for wear or grooves that could affect sealing. Proper alignment during installation is important to avoid damaging the sealing lip. Confirm fitment against the vehicle listing for Mitsubishi L200, Montero, Montero Sport, Mighty Max, Van, Starion, and Dodge Ram 50, Raider, or Power Ram 50 applications before service.

Quality Assurance

FAG designs seals to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications and works with suppliers to maintain its quality standards. The SS6232 is built for demanding wheel-end and driveline sealing conditions where contamination control and lubricant retention are critical.
