Detailed Description

InMotion WS1176 is a differential pinion seal engineered for a tight fit and dependable sealing at the axle or differential interface. The polyacrylate material and measured shaft and housing dimensions support a controlled seal surface, helping keep contaminants out and lubricant in. This part number WS1176 is listed for multiple Toyota and Volvo rear applications, including Fits 1986-1992 Volvo 740, rear inner, without Traction Control and Fits 1971-1985 Toyota Celica, rear outer, with Toyota Axle. It also covers additional Toyota Corolla and Corona configurations, making WS1176 a useful catalog reference when matching the correct seal by axle and ring gear notes. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Gear oil seepage at the differential pinion seal area.
• Contamination from road debris and moisture entering the seal zone.
• Wear related to an aging or hardened seal surface.
• Loss of sealing integrity in axle or differential service work.

Installation Notes

Verify the year, make, model, position, and notes before ordering. This seal is listed for rear inner and rear outer applications, so axle type and ring gear notes must match the vehicle configuration. Confirm the housing bore and shaft diameter against the existing part during service. Professional installation is recommended for proper sealing and alignment.

Quality Assurance

InMotion specifies precision engineering and high-quality materials for this seal to support reliable differential protection and long service life.
