When a lip seal wears a groove into the shaft it rides on, a new seal alone may not seal well against that damaged surface. This engine crankshaft repair sleeve fits over the worn area to give the new seal a fresh running surface. It is cataloged for front and rear positions, and it is also listed as a transfer case input shaft repair sleeve.
Sold individually. The quantity needed varies by application, so check the "Vehicles it fits" section for your vehicle.
What does the Timken KWK99174 repair sleeve do?
It fits over a shaft surface worn by a lip seal and gives the new seal a fresh running surface. The shaft does not need machining, and you do not need a different seal size.
Which vehicles does this repair sleeve fit?
It fits many vehicles, among them the 1999-2013 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 1988-1999 Chevrolet C1500 and 1988-1999 Chevrolet K1500, all engines. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.
Do I need special tools to install it?
Each Kwik-Sleeve comes with its own installation tool and a removable installation flange, and it can be installed without removing the shaft. Follow the vehicle service information for the procedure.
Will I need a different size seal with this sleeve?
No. The thin-walled design lets the sleeve be used without changing the seal size, and its finish is ideal for lip-sealing applications.
What are signs a shaft may need a repair sleeve?
Signs include a visible groove worn into the shaft where the seal lip rides, or a seal that keeps leaking after it has been replaced. Inspect the shaft to confirm the cause before buying parts.
