What does a pinion seal do?

A pinion seal is located where the driveshaft connects to the differential. Its main job is to prevent differential fluid from leaking out and to keep dirt and moisture from entering the differential housing.

What vehicles does this Yukon Gear pinion seal fit?

This seal is designed for GM 8.25-inch Independent Front Suspension (IFS) differentials. It fits a variety of Chevrolet, GMC, and Cadillac trucks and SUVs from 1988 through 2013, depending on the specific model.
