About this part

This item is an individual U-joint bellows for sterndrive bellows service—not a shift-cable bellows, exhaust bellows, or complete transom seal kit.

Workshop sequence

General workshop guidance only; use the service procedure for your exact drive or engine configuration.

  1. Compare the removed bellows against the replacement part and reference numbers, and verify whether your installation requires separate clamps, retaining rings, or sleeves.
  2. Clean and inspect the gimbal housing and bell housing mounting flanges so the sealing lands are free of old adhesive, corrosion, and debris.
  3. Fit the U-joint bellows in the orientation specified by the MerCruiser service manual for your Bravo, Blackhawk, or Vazer drive, ensuring the folds are seated evenly without twisting.
  4. Secure the bellows connections and check clearance through the full trim and steering range before returning the boat to service.
