Breather

Seals
CAUTION
ALWAYS USE THE CORRECT TOOLS AND PROCEDURES
WHEN REPLACING A SEAL. A SEAL NOT CORRECTLY
INSTALLED CAN LEAK. DAMAGE TO COMPONENTS CAN
RESULT.
Seals keep lubricant in and dirt out of a component. When they are
worn or damaged, seals leak and produce low lubricant levels which
may damage components.
Always replace unitized seals after yokes have been removed. MLS
seals may be reused if they are not damaged or leaking.
Meritor has released the multiple-lip seal (MLS) for use in the INPUT
POSITION ONLY on the MTC-4208, MTC-4210, and MTC-4213 trans-
fer cases. The multiple-lip seal is compatible with the current input
shaft seal and can be used in service. Refer to Figure 10.4 for the
INPUT position and front OUTPUT position. Refer to Figure 10.1 for the
MTC-4208 and MTC-4210 rear OUTPUT position. Refer to Figure 10.3
for the MTC-4213 rear OUTPUT position.
