Detailed Description

InMotion WS223553 is engineered for differential pinion sealing where accurate fit and stable sealing performance matter. The seal’s polyacrylate construction is specified to help resist contamination from debris and moisture while maintaining a tight interface at the shaft and housing bore. Its measured dimensions support proper seating in the differential assembly, helping reduce fluid loss and protect internal driveline components.

This part number is listed for a range of vehicles including Suzuki Grand Vitara, Suzuki XL-7, Suzuki Vitara, Suzuki Sidekick, Suzuki X-90, Chevrolet Tracker, Geo Tracker, GMC Tracker, Pontiac Sunrunner, and Honda Insight. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Differential pinion oil seepage
• Contamination entering the differential housing
• Wear at the pinion seal contact area
• Loss of sealing integrity in front differential service
• Moisture intrusion around the axle shaft seal area

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the differential type and position before installation. This seal is listed for vehicles with the Suzuki SK-F differential on many applications, including front-mounted use on Suzuki Grand Vitara, Suzuki XL-7, Chevrolet Tracker, Geo Tracker, GMC Tracker, Pontiac Sunrunner, Suzuki Vitara, Suzuki Sidekick, and Suzuki X-90. Verify shaft diameter, housing bore, and seal orientation against the removed part before pressing the new seal into place.

Clean the bore and sealing surface thoroughly before installation to help the seal seat evenly. Inspect the pinion shaft and surrounding components for scoring or wear that could affect sealing performance.

Quality Assurance

InMotion manufactures this seal with precision-focused dimensions and polyacrylate sealing material to support reliable differential service. The part is specified for direct replacement use in the listed applications, including 1999-2011 Suzuki Grand Vitara, 2001-2006 Honda Insight, and other compatible front differential configurations shown in the fitment data.
