Keep lubricant in and road grime out with the SKF wheel seal 13839, a rear inner wheel seal for classic Jeep and American Motors vehicles. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 1968-1974 American Motors Javelin, 1970-1977 American Motors Hornet, 1972-1976 American Motors Gremlin, 1976-1983 Jeep CJ5, 1976-1986 Jeep CJ7 and 1981-1985 Jeep Scrambler.
A wheel seal sits at the wheel end. Its lip rides against the rotating surface to hold lubricant in and keep dirt and water out. This seal is cataloged for the rear inner position.
SKF invented the first integrated shaft seal in 1928 and has continued to develop new seal designs and bonding techniques since then. Its seals are made to specific designs, using premium materials chosen for both the application and its environment.
Signs a wheel seal may need replacing include lubricant seeping at the wheel end, residue on the inside of the wheel or on brake parts, and a contaminated bearing. If a worn seal is the cause, this part replaces it. Fitment also includes more American Motors models, such as the Ambassador, Matador, Rebel, Pacer, Concord and Spirit. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
