Detailed Description

SKF 99260 is a transfer case output shaft repair sleeve engineered to restore the sealing surface on a worn shaft quickly and accurately. Instead of machining the shaft, the sleeve creates a new outer sealing surface that helps the transfer case seal run on a clean, uniform finish. This makes it a practical solution for Jeep Cherokee and Jeep Grand Cherokee transfer case repairs where shaft wear has caused seal leakage. The 99260 sleeve is sized for a 2.625-inch shaft diameter and is built from stainless steel to maintain a consistent sealing surface under demanding drivetrain conditions.

This part cross-references 5P6181 and 145899260 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

Repeat leakage after installing a new transfer case seal
Surface damage on a 2.625-inch transfer case output shaft

Installation Notes and Tips

Clean the shaft thoroughly before installation and verify the shaft diameter is 2.625 inches. The sleeve is installed over the worn sealing area to create a new running surface for the seal, and the included installation tool helps position it correctly. Follow the transfer case service procedure for your Jeep Cherokee or Jeep Grand Cherokee application and confirm seal contact after assembly.
