Detailed Description

Timken SL260346 is a rear wheel seal used in driveline and axle sealing applications where the seal must retain lubricant and help keep contaminants out of the assembly. It is listed for multiple rear-position applications across Nissan Frontier, Nissan Xterra, Suzuki Equator, and Nissan TITAN platforms, plus select Pontiac rear differential applications that use a 7.75 in. ring gear differential bearing. If you are searching for a rear wheel seal for a 2005-2019 Nissan Frontier, a 2005-2015 Nissan Xterra, or a 2020-2023 Nissan Frontier, SL260346 matches the confirmed fitment data.

This part number, SL260346, also appears under National 710869 and SKF 45600 for the same application, making it easier to confirm interchange during service work.

Common Uses

• Replacing a leaking rear wheel seal on a Nissan Frontier

• Servicing rear differential sealing on a Nissan TITAN
• Correcting contamination entry at the wheel-end seal area

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, make, model, and rear-position application before ordering. Confirm the existing seal dimensions and axle configuration against the vehicle service information, especially on Pontiac applications that specify a 7.75 in. ring gear differential bearing. Clean the sealing surface thoroughly and inspect the axle shaft, hub, or housing for wear before installing the new seal.
