OEM reference 69-2304057, it is installed in the upper steering knuckle gland of the front axle. Its function is to retain grease inside the knuckle housing while sealing out water, mud, and debris, ensuring smooth and reliable steering articulation under demanding driving conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"627\" data-end=\"1181\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"627\" data-end=\"660\"\u003eWhy choose this knuckle seal?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"660\" data-end=\"663\"\u003eThe steering knuckle is a critical component exposed to high stress and constant contamination risk. A worn seal allows grease to escape and dirt to enter, accelerating wear on ball joints and axle components. This OEM-spec replacement restores original sealing performance, providing long-lasting protection against leaks and ensuring reliable steering in both road and off-road use. Built to exact tolerances, it integrates seamlessly into the UAZ axle design and is also included in complete front axle seal kits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1183\" data-end=\"1522\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1183\" data-end=\"1205\"\u003eTechnical details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1205\" data-end=\"1208\"\u003eMaterial: nitrile rubber \/ elastomer compound resistant to grease and pressure\u003cbr data-start=\"1286\" data-end=\"1289\"\u003eApplication: upper steering knuckle gland, front axle assembly\u003cbr data-start=\"1351\" data-end=\"1354\"\u003eFunction: retains grease, prevents ingress of water and dirt\u003cbr data-start=\"1414\" data-end=\"1417\"\u003eOEM reference: 69-2304057 (works in conjunction with inner O-ring 69-2304052 and outer seal 69-2304055)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1524\" data-end=\"1691\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1524\" data-end=\"1546\"\u003eCompatible models:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1546\" data-end=\"1549\"\u003eBukhanka Classic (2.4L)\u003cbr data-start=\"1572\" data-end=\"1575\"\u003eBukhanka Classic (2.9L)\u003cbr data-start=\"1598\" data-end=\"1601\"\u003eBukhanka Modern (2.7L)\u003cbr data-start=\"1623\" data-end=\"1626\"\u003eHunter \u0026amp; 469 (2.4L)\u003cbr data-start=\"1645\" data-end=\"1648\"\u003eHunter \u0026amp; 469 (2.7L)\u003cbr data-start=\"1667\" data-end=\"1670\"\u003eHunter \u0026amp; 469 (2.9L)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1693\" data-end=\"2120\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1693\" data-end=\"1715\"\u003eInstallation tips:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1715\" data-end=\"1718\"\u003eRemove the old seal completely and clean the knuckle bore to bare metal. Inspect the housing for scoring or corrosion. Lightly grease the new seal’s lip to aid installation and prevent dry running. Press the seal evenly into the gland using a flat tool or driver. Once assembled, refill the knuckle with fresh grease according to the service manual and cycle the steering to check for proper sealing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2122\" data-end=\"2500\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2122\" data-end=\"2142\"\u003eWhen to replace?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2142\" data-end=\"2145\"\u003eReplace if grease leakage is visible around the upper knuckle joint or during any steering knuckle overhaul. For preventive maintenance, renew the seal every 80,000–100,000 km, or sooner if the vehicle is frequently exposed to mud, water crossings, or heavy off-road conditions. Regular replacement prevents costly wear and ensures steering reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2502\" data-end=\"2591\"\u003eNot sure if this part fits your vehicle?
