                       Prospectus Supplement

      This supplement updates, and to the extent inconsistent
therewith supersedes, the information found under the caption
"Selling Shareholders" beginning on page 58 of the Prospectus
dated July 9, 1998, relating to the offer for resale of
$11,500,000 in aggregate liquidation preference of 7% Trust
Convertible Preferred Securities (the "Convertible Preferred
Securities"), liquidation amount $50 per Convertible Preferred
Security, which represent undivided beneficial interests in the
assets of Federal-Mogul Financing Trust, a statutory business
trust created under the laws of the State of Delaware and the
shares of Common Stock, without par value of Federal-Mogul
Corporation, a Michigan corporation, issuable upon conversion of
the Convertible Preferred Securities. Capitalized terms herein
are used as defined in such prospectus.

                          SELLING HOLDERS

      The Convertible Preferred Securities were originally issued
by the Trust and sold by Morgan Stanley Dean Witter (the "Initial
Purchaser"), in transactions exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, to persons reasonably
believed by such Initial Purchaser to be "qualified institutional
buyers" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) or
outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in offshore
transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities
Act. The Selling Holders may from time to time offer and sell
pursuant to this Prospectus any or all of the Convertible
Preferred Securities, any Convertible Subordinated Debentures and
Federal-Mogul Common Stock issued upon conversion of the
Convertible Preferred Securities. The term Selling Holder
includes the holders listed below and the beneficial owners of
the Convertible Preferred Securities and their transferees,
pledgees, donees or other successors.

      The following table sets forth information with respect to
the Selling Holders and the respective number of Convertible
Preferred Securities beneficially owned by each Selling Holder at
June 15, 1998, that may be offered pursuant to this Prospectus.
Such information has been obtained from the Selling Holders and
the Institutional Trustee. Bear Stearns Securities Corp., Merrill
Lynch, Pierce, Fenner and Smith, Inc. and Merrill Lynch
International Ltd. have in the past provided to Federal-Mogul
and/or its affiliates investment banking and/or investment
advisory services for which they have received customary fees,
and may in the future provide such services. As of June 15, 1998,
Janus Capital Corporation held approximately 15.9% of
Federal-Mogul's outstanding Common Stock and Merrill Lynch Asset
Management, an affiliate of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner and
Smith, Inc., held approximately 5.4% of Federal-Mogul's
outstanding Common Stock.
