Product Details
National has supplied sealing solutions for more than 75 years, and the 6808N reflects that focus on dimensional accuracy and drivetrain sealing.

What It Helps Address
- Gear oil leakage at the differential pinion area
- Seepage around the pinion shaft seal surface
- Contamination from worn or hardened original seals
- Service issues on rear outer pinion seal locations
- Fitment concerns where 1.875-inch shaft and 3.165-inch OD dimensions are required
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the shaft diameter, housing bore, width, and axle configuration before installation. This seal is listed for rear outer positions and specific axle setups such as Spicer 60, Spicer 60-35, Spicer 60.2, Spicer 70, and related ring gear applications shown in the fitment data. Inspect the pinion surface for wear or grooves before installing the new seal, and confirm the seal lip seats evenly in the housing.
