  • Durable construction: designed and manufactured to strict specifications for reliable performance.
  • Trustworthy quality: backed by a team of product experts in the United States with more than a century of experience in heavy duty truck parts.

Common signs a pinion seal may need replacing include cracking, wear, or leaks brought on by heat, pressure, or contamination.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this part do?

It seals the joint between the rotating pinion gear and the stationary front differential housing, helping prevent gear oil leaks and maintain proper fluid levels.

Does the seal spin with the pinion?

No. The seal body stays stationary in the differential housing while its lip rides against the rotating pinion shaft to keep fluid contained.

Will this fit my vehicle?

It's a direct-fit replacement for many 1998-2020 GM trucks and SUVs, such as the Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Tahoe, Suburban, and GMC Sierra 1500 and Yukon. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

Is this a front or rear seal?

This is a front differential pinion seal, per the catalog. Confirm your vehicle's application in the Buyer's Guide tab before ordering.

What are common signs the pinion seal is failing?

Cracking, wear, or leaks caused by heat, pressure, or contamination, which can allow gear oil to seep from the pinion area. Diagnose the leak source before replacing.
