Give your rear axle seal a smooth, fresh surface to ride on with the Timken Drive Axle Shaft Repair Sleeve KWK99282. This thin sleeve installs over the worn area of the rear drive axle shaft and is cataloged for dozens of classic GM trucks and SUVs, including the 1975-1986 Chevrolet C20, 1988-2000 Chevrolet C2500, 1995-1999 Chevrolet Tahoe, 1979-1986 & 1988-1999 GMC K2500, and 1992-1998 GMC Yukon — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Renewed sealing surface: fits over the worn or grooved area on the rear drive axle shaft, giving the seal lip a smooth surface to ride against.
Rear-axle application: cataloged for the rear position on the listed vehicles.
Targeted repair: lets you address a scored shaft surface without replacing the entire axle shaft.
When a rear axle shaft's sealing surface becomes worn or grooved, a new seal can keep leaking because it has no smooth surface to ride on. If a worn shaft surface is the cause of your repeat rear axle seal leaks, this sleeve provides a fresh surface for a new seal to contact. Signs it may be needed include recurring axle seal leakage and a visible wear groove where the seal rides on the shaft.
Manufacturer part number KWK99282.
