Gasket Under Oil Seal Dana 18 Transfer Case

For output shaft bearing cap

Original gasket for the output shaft bearing cap of the Dana 18 transfer case. This gasket is fitted beneath the oil seal and ensures proper sealing of the front and rear output shafts. An essential component when overhauling the transfer case to prevent oil leakage.

Material

Oil-resistant paper

Transfer case

Dana 18

Application

Output shaft bearing cap

Quantity required

2 pieces per vehicle (front + rear)

Features

  • Oil-resistant stamped paper
  • For front and rear output shaft bearing cap
  • Essential during transfer case overhaul
  • Prevents oil leakage around output shafts
  • Compatible with shim packs for bearing adjustment

★ This gasket is fitted between the bearing cap and the transfer case housing, together with any shims for bearing adjustment. Important: the thickness of this gasket is a factor in the end-play adjustment of the output shaft.

Application

This gasket fits all vehicles with Dana 18 transfer case as described in the product categories: CJ-2A (1945-1949), CJ-3A (1948-1953), CJ-3B (1953-1968), M38 (1950-1952) and M38A1 (1952-1963). Fits both front and rear output bearing cap.

Installation notes

Note: the thickness of this gasket affects the end-play adjustment of the output shaft bearing. During fitting, first deburr all gasket surfaces with a smooth file. Fit together with the correct shims. When using RTV sealant: apply thinly to minimise thickness variation.

Compatibility

Fits all Dana 18 transfer cases regardless of variant (3/4" early shaft, 1-1/8" or 1-1/4" intermediate shaft). Both bearing caps (front and rear) use the same gasket. During complete overhaul, this gasket is often supplied in a gasket & seal kit together with all other gaskets and seals.

Historical context

The Dana Spicer Model 18 transfer case was used from 1941 in WWII jeeps and remained in production until the early 1970s for civilian Willys and Jeep models. This robust 2-speed transfer case was renowned for its reliability, but had a tendency towards oil leakage with worn gaskets.
