Keep transmission and transfer case lubricant sealed in and road grime out with the SKF Seal 14978, a rear-position output shaft seal that installs as a direct-fit replacement across a broad list of Ford, Mercury, Lincoln, Jeep, GMC and Chevrolet applications. Fitment spans vehicles such as the 1975-1993 Ford F-150, 1982-1994 Lincoln Town Car, 1991-1996 Jeep Cherokee and 1993-1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee — with 215 applications total, see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and the engine detail for your vehicle.
This part is listed under multiple names — Auto Trans Seal, Manual Transmission Seal and Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal — reflecting the rear output shaft position it serves.
- Garter spring: cold-drawn steel wire garter spring for superior fluid retention.
- Deep-drawn sheet steel body: forms a rigid, stress-resistant metal case.
- Contaminant protection: superior protection against dirt and water.
- Quality-tested build: made with tested design and premium materials for correct fit.
The seal body stays stationary in its bore while its sealing lip rides against the rotating output shaft, keeping lubricant in and contaminants out. SKF has developed shaft seals since inventing the first integrated shaft seal in 1928. Weeping or seepage of lubricant at the rear output shaft is a common sign this seal may need replacing.
