ABSTRACT:
A seal member and tolerance compensator which includes a body portion, an integral leg portion, and several deformable locator and sealing extensions. The leg portion is received in a compressed manner between two adjacent components of a pivotally connected assembly which have axial tolerances. At least one of the surfaces of the leg portion is provided with grooves and projections such that when the projections are compressed between adjacent components by relative motion within the assembly or tolerances within the assembly, the elastic material of the protrusions will flex into the surrounding grooves.
