Detailed Description
National 6930 is a rear differential pinion seal engineered around exact dimensional requirements for older Ford axle assemblies. The seal’s 1.812-inch shaft diameter, 4.128-inch outside diameter, and 0.746-inch width help it match the housing and pinion interface used in 1957-1958 Ford F-100, Ford Thunderbird, and Mercury Colony Park rear differentials. National has supplied sealing solutions for more than 75 years, and this part reflects that focus on dimensional accuracy and drivetrain sealing performance. This part cross-references Dorman - HELP 46100 and Davico Mfg 18276 for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Rear differential oil seepage at the pinion seal area
- Gear oil loss from a worn or hardened seal
- Contamination around the pinion yoke and housing bore
- Sealing issues on Ford axle assemblies with a 9-inch ring gear
- Fitment concerns on 1957-1958 Ford F-100, Ford Thunderbird, and Mercury Colony Park rear applications
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the housing bore, shaft diameter, and seal width before installation to confirm the correct match for the axle assembly. Inspect the pinion yoke surface for wear or grooves that can affect sealing performance, and clean the housing bore thoroughly before pressing the seal into place. Confirm rear position fitment and Ford axle configuration against the vehicle’s service information before final assembly. Part number 6930 is listed for 1957-1958 Ford F-100 rear, 1957-1958 Ford Thunderbird rear, and 1957-1958 Mercury Colony Park rear applications with the specified 9-inch ring gear and axle notes.
