National 3747 Wheel Seal for Rear Axles

National 3747 is a rear wheel seal built for older Chevrolet and GMC heavy-duty trucks and vans with a 9.5 inch ring gear. It uses a nitrile sealing material and a bi-directional lip design to help maintain a consistent seal at the wheel end.

  • Wheel seal / oil seal for rear axle applications
  • Nitrile construction for sealing performance
  • Bi-directional lip design
  • Redi-Coat treated surface
  • Inside diameter: 1.703 in / 43.260 mm
  • Outside diameter: 3.090 in / 78.490 mm
  • Housing bore: 3.084 in / 78.330 mm
  • Width: 0.500 in / 12.700 mm

Fitment and application details

This National 3747 seal is used on rear axle positions for a range of Chevrolet and GMC models, including Chevrolet G30, R2500 Suburban, V2500 Suburban, P20, R2500, R20, R20 Suburban, V20 Suburban, V20, C20, C20 Suburban, K20, K20 Suburban, and GMC G3500, R2500 Suburban, V2500 Suburban, P2500, R2500, V2500, C2500, C2500 Suburban, K2500, and K2500 Suburban. It is listed for 1981-1991 applications, with notes calling out vehicles equipped with a 9.5 inch ring gear where specified.

This part cross-references Centric Parts 417.66012 for the same application.

What this seal helps address

  • Rear wheel-end oil leakage
  • Contamination entering the axle seal area
  • Seal wear from age, heat, and road exposure
  • Loss of sealing integrity around the housing bore and shaft surface

Installation notes and tips

Verify the axle housing bore, shaft diameter, and seal dimensions before installation. National 3747 measures 1.703 inches on the shaft side, 3.090 inches outside diameter, and 0.500 inches wide, so matching the seal to the axle specification is important for proper seating. Confirm rear-position fitment and ring gear notes for Chevrolet and GMC applications before assembly.

Quality assurance

National has supplied sealing products for more than 75 years and continues to develop sealing solutions for current and legacy vehicles. The 3747 wheel seal reflects that focus with an OE-style fit and material selection suited to driveline sealing service.
