Hello, everyone. I own a 2001 Jeep Wrangler with a 4.0L Engine. I’m looking to replace the pinion seal on the front differential. After doing the identification of the differentials by the differential cover, it looks to me like the rear differential has a Dana 35, while the front one has a Dana 30. I’ve already pulled off the old pinion seal from the front differential, and it has the model number S – 12772, with the other side saying I-22. I haven’t been able to find the part in any parts houses, as they’re all different sizes or have different things attached to them.

Any help that you can give in terms of helping me find the correct part would be greatly appreciated!
 
Last time I did mine, I ended up buying two. One with a flange and one without. Both looked to fit fine, I just liked the flanged model better. Seemed easier to install and replace over the non flanged one.

Mine was on a 44, so the part numbers may be different.
 
That should be what you want

Here's a couple pics of what I'm talking about with the flanges..

I have no clue what's best, the mopar is without and the other is an aftermarket brand I don't recall the name.
