The SKF 99181 rear timing cover repair sleeve for the 1997 Ford F-250 HD refinishes a worn or scored shaft with a new outer sealing surface for the seal to ride on.
- Part of the SKF Speedi-Sleeve line
- Refinishes a worn shaft in less than five minutes, from scored to restored
- Avoids shaft regrinding, which can leave poor-quality sealing surfaces, and gives an ideal outer sealing surface every time
- Made from AISI 304 stainless steel
A scored or grooved shaft surface, or a leak at the seal, can mean the sealing surface is worn. Before you replace anything, rule out a worn seal or another leak point first, because a leak in this area can have more than one source.
As an engine timing cover repair sleeve, it is a direct-fit replacement for the 1997 Ford F-250 HD, which takes one.
