FAQ
Does M-4890833 include a repair sleeve?No—this listing is for the seal only. If the crank surface is worn, use a kit that includes a wear sleeve (e.g., Cummins 3926126).
Will it fit my 1998.5–2002 5.9L Cummins 24V Ram?
Yes—this Interstate-McBee seal matches the OEM 4890833 spec used on 98.5–02 5.9L ISB applications. Verify by ESN to avoid housing variances.
Is this compatible with other B/ISB/QSB engines?
4890833 is used across various B/ISB/QSB engines, but applications vary by ESN and rear housing. Check your ESN for confirmation.
How do I know if I need the sleeve-type kit instead?
If there’s a groove on the crank sealing surface or prior leakage left damage, choose a seal kit with a wear sleeve for a proper repair.
What installer tool is recommended?
A rear main seal installer designed for Cummins B/ISB engines ensures correct depth and alignment; this reduces rework and leaks.
