Schaeffler Wheel Seal P/N:S48002
Help keep dirt, dust and moisture away from the front wheel bearing and hold its grease in place with the Schaeffler Wheel Seal / Shaft Seal SS2601. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, installed in the front position, and fits many vehicles, among them the 1964-1966 Ford Mustang, 1960-1965 Ford Falcon and 1964-1965 Mercury Caliente.
Schaeffler engineers its wheel seals from high-quality materials to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications. It also works with its suppliers to design seals that meet Schaeffler's own quality standards. This seal is designed to shield wheel end components from contamination and to help prevent grease loss over the life of the bearing. Wheel seal specifications are demanding, and the correct type depends on the application, position and vehicle class. Schaeffler lists this part under two names, wheel seal and shaft seal.
Signs a wheel seal may need replacing: Grease seeping from the wheel area or onto brake components, or a visibly damaged seal lip. Diagnose the cause before replacing any parts. If a worn seal is the cause, SS2601 replaces it. Inspect the bearing while the wheel end is apart. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list of applications.
