Detailed Description

Timken SL260154 is a manual transmission input shaft seal engineered for Honda manual transaxle service where the shaft opening must stay sealed under operating heat and motion. The seal’s reinforced case supports cleaner installation, while the ribbed inner diameter helps maintain contact on shafts with minor surface variation. For Honda Civic, Honda Fit, and Honda Insight manual transmission repairs, this seal addresses leakage control at a critical wear point.

This part cross-references no listed aftermarket part numbers for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

• Transmission fluid seepage at the input shaft
• Contamination entering the transmission through a worn seal
• Heat-related seal wear from poor lubricant circulation
• Leakage caused by minor shaft surface imperfections
• Repeat service issues from a damaged or worn manual transmission seal

Installation Notes and Tips

Inspect the input shaft, seal bore, and surrounding housing before installation. Clean the sealing surface thoroughly and verify the replacement seal seats evenly to avoid distortion. Confirm the application by year and model before ordering the Timken SL260154.
