- Located on the transfer case on your four-wheel-drive vehicle
- Helps prevent transmission fluid leaks
- Replace when worn out or damaged
The Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal is found on the transfer case of your Nissan. The transfer case is responsible for transferring power to the rear wheels on a four-wheel-drive vehicle using gear reductions and chain drives.
The transfer case output shaft connects the transfer case to the axle by the transmission's input shaft and uses the Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal to ensure that the connection is secure. Without a working Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal, transmission fluid would leak from the rear and front output shaft.
If there's a leak caused by a broken, damaged, or worn out Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal, the lack of fluid will no longer lubricate the internal transfer case components, potentially causing the chain drives and gears to wear out, overheat, or break. This internal damage can cause the whole transfer case to wear down and become inoperable, potentially causing the vehicle's four-wheel drive to malfunction or stop working.
If you have a worn out or damaged Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal on your vehicle, you might notice a few symptoms. These indicators can include trouble with your Nissan remaining in four-wheel drive, a metal-on-metal grinding noise underneath the vehicle, and issues shifting gears.
If you think the Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal on your vehicle is wearing out, replace it as soon as possible to keep the transfer case and other nearby parts from becoming damaged as well.
