• Seals the connection between the transfer case and the transmissions input shaft
• Can wear out over time and cause fluid leaks
• Replace if you have difficulty shifting, there's a grinding noise under the vehicle, or there are issues with four-wheel drive

Your Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal can be found on the transfer case of four-wheel-drive INFINITI models. The transfer case transfers power to the vehicle's rear wheels on a four-wheel-drive vehicle using chain drives and gear reductions.

The transfer case output shaft is the part that connects your axle to the transfer case by the transmission's input shaft and uses the Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal to keep the connection secure. Without the Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal, transmission fluid can leak out of the front and rear 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, which can damage the gears and chain drives by causing them to overheat or wear out. This can quickly cause the transfer case to wear down and become inoperable, potentially leaving the vehicle without four-wheel drive operation.

If your Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal is old, damaged, or wearing out, a few symptoms may be present. These indicators can include difficulty shifting gears, a metal-on-metal grinding noise coming from underneath the vehicle, and issues with your INFINITI staying in four-wheel drive.

If you suspect your Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal is wearing out, replace it with a new part as soon as possible to avoid damaging the transfer case or other nearby components.

Replace the Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal on your INFINITI with a new seal from genuine INFINITI Parts. This Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal 332167S11C fits your INFINITI QX56 2004-2010. Check the What This Fits tab for more information.
