Side Differential Oil Seal for Nissan ️

Stop axle-area leaks and protect your final drive with this genuine‑spec side differential oil seal. Fitted where the driveshaft exits the transaxle, it locks in gear oil and keeps dust and water out. A fresh seal preserves correct lubrication, prevents noise, and extends bearing and gear life. Built with heat/chem‑resistant elastomer on a steel shell, it delivers stable sealing in city traffic, long highway runs, and rough roads.

How it works ⚙️

A precision lip and garter spring hug the axle stub. As the shaft spins, the lip rides on a polished journal, returning oil inward while a dust lip blocks debris. The outer shell presses into the housing for a tight interference fit, so the seal stays fixed and the oil stays put.

If the seal fails ❗

Expect wetness around the axle, gear‑oil drips, burnt‑oil smell, and humming from the differential. Oil loss overheats bearings and gears, creating metal shavings, loud whine, CV/brake contamination, and can end in a seized final drive—much costlier than replacing a seal.

Tech tips

Check the axle journal for grooves, clean the bore, lightly oil the lip, and press the seal square—do not hammer the inner lip. Seat flush, reinstall the shaft, torque to spec, then refill GL‑4/GL‑5 to level and road‑test for leaks.
