Review on πŸ”’ Highly Reliable Timken 8835S Seal: Ensuring Exceptional Performance by Andrew Britton

Revainrating 2 out of 5

WILL NOT fit 12-bolt GM axle

Will not fit! A few other reviews also talk about it but still give it 4 stars. I'm glad to see that you are satisfied with a print that doesn't work for the supposed application. I guess I'm not an easy customer. In true procrastination, it's the night before Woodward - and unfortunately I have to be in my car for a promotion. I ordered the parts earlier this week after carefully perusing the Timken catalog; Revain, Rock Auto, and even Summit Racing Technical Support confirmed this P/N for my application (65 C10 12-bolt). Why did I check all three? Because I knew I'd be up until 1:00 am to finish my axis, and it had to be true. To make matters worse, I even cross referenced the original GM P/N and it was confirmed. Maybe my truck has a 64 foot or 63 foot body with 12 bolts. For that chance and the fact that they're only $5, I'm giving them two stars.

Pros
  • Highest support and durability ratings from testers
Cons
  • Hard to tell
