Overview
The Crown Automotive J8127351 is a front axle spindle seal for the Dana 30 Standard axle type. Spindle seals keep grease in the spindle area and dirt out, so it belongs with a front Dana 30 Standard hub assembly. Confirm fit for your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Spindle seal maintenance
A spindle seal keeps grease in the spindle area and dirt out, so leaks often show up as grease on the backing plate or dust collected around the hub. Because the seal sits at the front of a Dana 30 Standard hub, it sees water and debris every time the vehicle drives through wet or muddy ground. Inspect it during every hub service.
When installing a replacement, clean the bore and check that the seal lip is free of nicks before pressing it in. Use a driver that seats the seal evenly so it does not cock. Keep the hub lubricated and watch for early leakage after the first trail runs.
- Check the backing plate for grease
- Replace a seal with a nicked lip
