Seal the rear of the crankshaft where it exits the engine block with the APEX Automobile Parts Inc Crankshaft Seal Kit ABS320, a rear main seal set designed to help keep engine oil inside the engine. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1996-1999 Chevrolet C1500 4.3L / 5.0L / 5.7L, 1996-1999 Chevrolet K1500 4.3L / 5.0L / 5.7L and 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4.3L, and is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications.

  • Rear main seal set: APEX describes ABS320 as a rear main seal set for the rear crankshaft seal location.
  • Position: Rear.
  • Quantity per application: 1. The listed applications use one set.
  • Engines: Listed applications cover V6-4.3L, V8-5.0L and V8-5.7L engines. Available engines vary by vehicle and year.

The rear main seal stays stationary while the crankshaft turns against it, holding back oil at the back of the engine. Signs this part may need replacing include oil seeping or dripping from the rear of the engine where it meets the transmission, and an oil level that drops between changes. Other gaskets can also leak oil toward the rear of the engine, so find the source of the leak before you replace the seal. If a worn rear main seal is the cause, this engine crankshaft seal kit replaces it.

See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of fitting vehicles and engines.
