Detailed Description

Timken 710740 is an automatic transmission output shaft seal engineered for sealing performance at the transmission output shaft. It is designed for right-side applications on select Volvo vehicles, including 2005-2010 Volvo V50, 2005-2007 Volvo V70, 2000 Volvo V70, 2003 Volvo XC90, 1998-2000 Volvo S70, and 1998-1999 Volvo C70. The seal’s reinforced construction, ribbed inner diameter, and debris-exclusion features support consistent sealing where the shaft surface and operating conditions demand reliable fluid control. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Transmission fluid seepage at the output shaft seal
• Contamination entering the seal area from road debris
• Leakage caused by minor shaft surface imperfections
• Heat-related seal wear from poor lubricant circulation
• Seal damage during installation on the transmission housing

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s right-side application before installation and confirm the seal surface is clean, smooth, and free of scoring. Inspect the shaft and housing for wear, then install the seal squarely to avoid lip distortion. For Volvo V50, Volvo V70, Volvo XC90, Volvo S70, and Volvo C70 service work, matching the original seal dimensions and orientation is important for proper sealing performance.
