Installation Notes and Tips

Verify shaft diameter, outside diameter, and width before installation to confirm proper seating. Clean the sealing bore and mating surfaces thoroughly, and inspect the hub, spindle, and bearing surfaces for wear or scoring before installing the new seal. For best results, install the seal squarely to avoid distortion of the sealing lip. Confirm the vehicle application carefully for 1995-2004 Toyota Tacoma and 1993-1998 Toyota T100 front positions.
