Installation Notes and Tips

Verify shaft diameter, outside diameter, and width before installation to confirm the seal matches the application. Inspect the shaft and housing for wear, scoring, or corrosion before pressing in the new seal. Clean the sealing surface and surrounding bore thoroughly so the nitrile lip can seat evenly. Confirm the vehicle application against the listed fitment for Jaguar XJ12, Jaguar XJS, Chrysler Imperial, Chrysler New Yorker, Chrysler Newport, and Chrysler Town & Country front applications.
