This rear differential pinion seal is a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 2000-2010 Dodge Ram 1500, 2011-2018 Ram 1500 and 2001-2008 Dodge Ram 2500.

The pinion seal sits where the pinion enters the rear differential housing. The seal body stays stationary while its lip contacts the rotating pinion assembly. This holds lubricant inside the housing and helps block dirt, dust, and moisture from reaching the internal components. Schaeffler designs its seals with suppliers to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications and its own quality standards.
Signs this part may need replacing: lubricant seepage or wetness at the front of the differential where the driveshaft connects, or a low differential fluid level. Confirm the source of a leak before replacing the seal.
