Engine Seal for Subaru and Saab Applications

The InMotion WS223230 seal is built for precise sealing performance in engine and drivetrain service. Made from polyacrylate, it provides a tight barrier against moisture and debris while helping maintain a reliable seal at the shaft and housing interface.

Compatible With 1990-2015 Subaru Legacy, Outback, Impreza, Forester, Baja, WRX, WRX STI, and 2005-2006 Saab 9-2X applications, this seal is sized for accurate fitment and dependable sealing performance. The WS223230 part number is a direct reference for buyers searching for a replacement seal for Subaru and Saab vehicles.

Detailed Description

InMotion WS223230 is a precision-engineered seal made to help keep contaminants out and retain sealing integrity in demanding service conditions. The polyacrylate sealing material is selected for consistent contact and resistance to moisture intrusion, while the dimensional specifications support accurate installation in the intended housing bore and shaft diameter. For shoppers looking for a Subaru WRX camshaft seal, Subaru Forester engine seal, or Saab 9-2X replacement seal, WS223230 provides a direct fitment reference for the listed vehicles.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What This Seal Helps Address

  • Oil leakage at the seal interface
  • Contamination from dirt and moisture entering the sealed area
  • Wear caused by an unstable or poorly matched seal size
  • Reduced sealing performance in high-mileage service
  • Service issues on Subaru Legacy, Outback, Impreza, Forester, Baja, WRX, and WRX STI models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify shaft diameter, housing bore, and seal width before installation. Clean the sealing surface thoroughly and inspect for scoring, corrosion, or debris that could affect sealing contact. Proper alignment during installation helps prevent distortion of the seal lip and supports a consistent seal. Confirm vehicle application by year, make, and model before ordering the WS223230 seal.

Quality Assurance

InMotion manufactures this seal with precision sizing and high-quality materials to support reliable sealing performance in the specified applications. The WS223230 is built to meet the dimensional requirements listed for the intended Subaru and Saab fitments.
