Timken Differential Pinion Seal 710476
Timken 710476 is a differential pinion seal built to retain lubricant and block road debris from entering the sealing area.

- Internal contamination exclusion system helps reduce debris intrusion
- Vent holes promote lubricant flow around the seal lip to reduce heat buildup
Detailed Description
This Timken differential pinion seal is engineered for driveline sealing service where lubricant retention and contamination control are critical. The seal design supports consistent contact at the sealing surface, while the reinforced case and ribbed inner diameter help it seat properly during installation. Timken 710476 is a practical replacement for worn or leaking pinion seals on vehicles such as the Dodge Dakota, Dodge Durango, Chrysler Aspen, Dodge Nitro, and Mitsubishi Raider.
