Description
When you’ve got gear oil making a mess under your Ford Dexta, the problem often traces back to a worn outer half shaft seal. That annoying oil leak at your rear axle might not be a bad seal – it could be a worn half shaft collar allowing the seal to fail prematurely. This precision-machined collar provides the smooth sealing surface your inner axle seal needs to keep gear oil where it belongs. This seal keeps your differential oil where it belongs instead of creating slip hazards and costly fluid loss.
What You’re Getting
- Exact 3.125 x 4.00 x 0.500 inch dimensions for perfect fit on Dexta axles
- Durable rubber construction that handles the constant rotation and pressure
- Designed to work with the half shaft collar for reliable sealing
- Direct replacement that installs without modifications
Built for Real Farm Work
This seal is made specifically for Ford Dexta and Super Dexta tractors – those compact workhorses that handle everything from orchard work to hay operations. Ford Dexta and 20D tractors are the small-farm legends that refuse to retire. Your Dexta might be the perfect size for orchard work, mowing between buildings, or running that old sickle bar mower. Whether you’re using your Dexta for loader work or pulling implements, this seal keeps your rear axle properly lubricated.
Made to Last
Farm equipment seals take a beating from temperature swings, dirt, and constant use. This seal uses quality rubber compounds that resist gear oil breakdown and maintain flexibility through seasons of operation. If you can feel a ridge with your fingernail where the seal rides, the collar needs replacing. Don’t try to polish out deep grooves – the collar is inexpensive compared to repeatedly replacing seals and losing gear oil.
Installation Notes
This seal works together with the half shaft collar, so inspect both when doing axle service. The obvious sign is oil leaking from the inner axle seal area, especially if you’ve already replaced the seal and it’s still leaking. When you remove the old collar, look for grooves worn by the seal, rust pitting, or any damage to the sealing surface. Clean the axle housing thoroughly and check that the collar surface is smooth before installing the new seal.
