Product Details

This is a Victor Reinz JV1626 rear main seal set, designed to replace the seal on the back of the crankshaft. This seal is crucial for preventing oil from leaking out of the engine where the crankshaft exits the engine block and meets the transmission. A leaking rear main seal can cause significant oil loss and create a mess, so replacing it is a common repair when rebuilding an engine or when a leak is detected.

This particular seal set is well-made and fits a range of vehicles, including models like the Acura SLX, Honda Passport, and various Isuzu Rodeo and Trooper applications. It's designed to meet the original equipment specifications for a proper fit and reliable sealing performance. Ensuring this seal is in good condition is important for maintaining oil levels and preventing potential engine damage from low oil pressure.

When you're tackling a rear main seal replacement, it's often done with the transmission removed. Make sure to clean the crankshaft sealing surface thoroughly before installing the new seal to ensure it seats properly and creates a tight seal. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for any specific details or tool recommendations.
