Installation Guide

- Remove Old Bellow: Cut off the old U-joint bellow and remove the retaining clamps and clips from the gimbal housing and bell housing.
- Clean Surfaces: Thoroughly clean the bell housing and gimbal housing surfaces where the new bellow will seat. Remove all debris, corrosion, and old adhesive.
- Install Sleeve: Slide the provided sleeve onto the U-joint shaft at the correct position as indicated in your service manual.
- Position New Bellow: Carefully slide the new U-joint bellow over the shaft and align it with the bell housing groove, ensuring the ridge faces the correct direction.
- Secure with Clamps: Install the provided clamps at both ends of the bellow and tighten evenly to the recommended torque specification. Attach clips to secure the bellow in place.
- Inspect Installation: Verify that the bellow is seated properly without twists or kinks and that all clamps are secure.
- Reassemble Drive: Reinstall the sterndrive unit following your service manual procedures. Reconnect the battery and test for leaks by running the engine in a test tank or on the water.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this U-joint bellow fits my Mercruiser engine?
A: Check the compatibility table above for your model and year, then verify your serial number falls within the specified range (0B664190 & Up for Bravo models, 0F186717 & Up for Blackhawk). Cross-reference your current bellow's OEM number with the part numbers listed.
Q: How often should I replace the U-joint bellow?
A: Inspect the U-joint bellow annually or every 100 hours of operation for cracks, tears, or deterioration. Replace immediately if you notice any damage, as a failed bellow can allow water into the gimbal bearing and cause serious damage.
Q: What are the signs that my U-joint bellow is failing?
A: Common symptoms include visible cracks or splits in the rubber, water in the bilge near the transom assembly, corrosion on the U-joint or gimbal bearing, and excessive play or noise during engine operation.
Q: Does this kit include all the parts I need for installation?
A: Yes, this kit includes the U-joint bellow with ridge, clamps, clips, and sleeve—everything needed for a complete installation. You may want to apply marine grease to the U-joint during reassembly (sold separately).
Q: What's the difference between OEM and aftermarket U-joint bellows?
A: This listing is an aftermarket replacement part (not an OEM component). We build to OEM specifications using comparable-grade materials. Production is done in an ISO9002-certified facility, and each batch is inspected for consistent performance.
