Driveshaft Seal

The driveshaft seal is essential because it seals the front output shaft of the transfer case and keeps gear oil and transmission fluid from the component.

Driveshaft seal operation

The driveshaft seal is the component that seals the connection of a CV axle to the rear differential. The main function of the driveshaft seal is to maintain the transmission fluid from leaking out. In some all-wheel drive (AWD) vehicles, the front driveshaft axle is attached to the transfer case. It is important to maintain the driveshaft seal in good working order to stop any future leaks.

Common problems with a broken driveshaft seal

A broken driveshaft seal can lead to leaking, and poor lubrication, and it can cause damage to the transmission.
