Frequently asked questions

What is the RTC7173 overdrive oil seal kit?
The RTC7173 is an oil seal kit for the Fairey-type auxiliary overdrive that bolts onto the Land Rover transfer box. The seals fit around the output shaft to retain lubricant inside the overdrive and stop oil leaking from the unit in normal use.
Which vehicles and overdrives does the RTC7173 fit?
The RTC7173 fits the Fairey-type overdrive output shaft on Land Rover Series 1, 2 and 3 models. It's the oil seal kit for that unit. Confirm you have a Fairey-pattern overdrive before ordering, as other overdrive types use different seals.
When should the RTC7173 oil seals be replaced?
Replace the RTC7173 oil seals whenever the Fairey overdrive is weeping from the output shaft or being rebuilt. Oil seals typically harden with age and let lubricant escape. Renewing them during any overdrive strip-down is sensible, since access is far easier with the unit apart.
