SKF 16890A Automatic Transmission Output Shaft Seal

SKF 16890A Automatic Transmission Output Shaft Seal

SKF 16890A is an automatic transmission output shaft seal built for controlled sealing at the transmission shaft interface. It uses a polyacrylate sealing surface and precise dimensions to help maintain fluid retention while keeping road contaminants out.

Compatible with 2007-2016 Mitsubishi Outlander applications, this SKF transmission seal is a direct-fit service part for output shaft sealing needs. The SKF 16890A is engineered around the shaft and housing dimensions listed below for accurate replacement work.

Key Features

• Automatic transmission output shaft seal for transmission sealing service
• Polyacrylate sealing surface type
• Outside diameter: 2.333 in.
• Shaft diameter: 1.673 in.
• Width: 0.315 in.
• SKF part number 16890A for catalog and service reference

Detailed Description

SKF 16890A is designed for the transmission output shaft location where fluid control and contamination resistance are critical. The seal dimensions are specified for a 1.673-inch shaft diameter, 2.333-inch outside diameter, and 0.315-inch width, helping ensure proper seating in the transmission assembly. For Mitsubishi Outlander owners servicing the drivetrain, this seal supports a clean replacement of the output shaft sealing point on 2007-2016 models. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Transmission fluid leakage at the output shaft seal
• Contamination entering the transmission through a worn seal
• Seepage caused by age, heat, and seal wear
• Service issues during Mitsubishi Outlander transmission repair
• Replacement of a damaged or hardened output shaft seal

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm shaft diameter, outside diameter, and seal width before installation. Inspect the shaft surface and seal bore for scoring, corrosion, or debris before fitting the new seal. Clean the sealing area thoroughly and install the seal squarely to avoid distortion. Verify the transmission fluid level after service and check for leaks during road testing.
