Ford Explorer Transfer Case Seal

The purpose of a Transfer Case Seal is to contain the lubricant inside the transfer case to prevent the loss of fluids, which could potentially damage the gears and create overheating issues. Located at the rear output shaft, the Transfer Case Seal prevents a fluid leak. The humble ring in every Ford 4x4 system ensures that lubrication stays proper so gears can rotate freely and cool efficiently. When the seal fails, drivers might see red puddles under the case, indicating that the Explorer drivetrain is subject to heat, wear, and loss of hydraulic pressure. Initially, a single-lip Transfer Case Seal made of nitrile rubber was applied, but later models of the Explorer featured dual-lip parts with Viton for higher temperature resistance and improved spring tension. A new Transfer Case Seal, regardless of style, along with a good output-shaft bushing will center the yoke and eliminate side play. By ensuring this part is healthy, Ford owners can avoid costly gear damage, crisp all-wheel engagement, and realize the adventurous characteristics that hallmarked the popularity of the Ford Explorer, so replacing a worn Transfer Case Seal is smart.

We provide a wide range of Ford Explorer Transfer Case Seal at the optimal prices. If you need Ford Explorer Transfer Case Seal, you can shop with confidence on our website. All our OEM parts come with a manufacturer's warranty and are delivered to your doorstep with a fast delivery service.
