Axle shaft seals

FireStorm102389 · 05-25-2019, 01:36 AM

Hey, so I just got done doing the major fixes on my vue, and decided to start taking on some of the smaller stuff now. My question is this: I bought these new axle shaft seals from carid since I was already ordering a few things from there, it was convenient. I got down and looked at my seals and they look different. These new ones have some sort of a dust cover or metal shield cone on them and the originals don’t have anything. Anyone use these before? Says they fit my 2004 Saturn Vue.

It won’t let me post the link, but if you look it up on carid you’ll see them. Maybe I ordered an output shaft seal for an awd version? Looking to replace the axle shaft seal passenger and driver side, so if I bought the wrong one I’d like to know ahead of time.

Some of the seals have a little cage, some have a spinner to throw debris away, some have nothing.

Any of the above will work. Scroll down to the bottom of the first post in this thread and you can see photos of the ones I installed.

Yup I have 2 of the same ones you got the picture of. So they work both sides? They don’t have a different one for the driver side do they?
