Detailed Description

This Timken axle shaft seal is engineered for front right outer intermediate shaft applications on the Nissan Frontier, Nissan Pathfinder, Nissan Xterra, and INFINITI QX4. Timken 710071 uses a sealing profile that supports lubricant retention while helping prevent contamination at the axle interface. The reinforced case and ribbed inner diameter are designed to improve fit and sealing performance in real-world service conditions.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

  • Gear oil or grease leakage at the front axle shaft seal area
  • Contamination entering the axle sealing surface
  • Seal wear caused by minor spindle imperfections
  • Heat-related seal deterioration around the lip area
  • Repeat leaks after prior seal replacement

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle position before installation: front right outer. Inspect the spindle or shaft surface for scoring, corrosion, or burrs before fitting the new seal. Clean the sealing bore thoroughly and seat the seal evenly to avoid distortion. Confirm the axle assembly is correct for the vehicle before ordering Timken 710071.

Quality Assurance

Timken designs oil and grease seals with precision sealing features and contamination control details to support dependable service in driveline applications.
