What’s in the Box

  • 1 x U-joint bellows

Clamps, tools, sealants, gaskets and installation instructions are not confirmed as included unless specifically supplied with the order.

Installation Notes

  1. Disconnect the boat battery and follow the applicable service-manual safety procedures.
  2. Position and support the sterndrive according to the manufacturer’s service instructions.
  3. Remove the existing bellows and inspect the drive-joint, transom-shield and mating surfaces.
  4. Clean the mounting surfaces and check that the new bellows matches the original part before installation.
  5. Install the bellows in the correct orientation and seat both ends fully on their mating surfaces.
  6. Use the correct clamps and tightening procedure specified for your drive model; clamps are not confirmed as included with this single bellows.
  7. Inspect the completed installation for proper seating, pinching and possible water-entry paths before operating the boat.

Professional installation is recommended because incorrect bellows installation can allow water intrusion and damage nearby drive components.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm fitment?

Compare your original bellows and Volvo Penta part reference with 22197130 or 23075752, then verify the complete drive designation against the compatibility table. Do not rely on the engine name alone.

Is this a complete bellows service kit?

No. This listing is for one U-joint bellows. Clamps, tools, seals and other service components are not confirmed as included.

What does a failed U-joint bellows look like?

Inspect for cracks, splits, hardening, distortion, loose ends and signs of water intrusion. If damage is found, inspect the universal joint and adjacent components before returning the boat to service.

Can I use the bellows on any SX or DP drive?

Not necessarily. Only the Volvo Penta applications listed on this page are identified for this product. Verify the exact designation and compare the original part before ordering.

Are clamps included?

Clamps are not confirmed as included. Use the correct clamp type and installation procedure specified for your particular drive.

Safety & Important Information

  • Verify the part appearance, dimensions and mounting arrangement against your original bellows before installation.
  • Keep the model and drive-designation conditions together when confirming compatibility.
  • Do not operate the boat if the bellows is improperly seated, damaged or leaking.
  • Professional installation is recommended for safe and reliable service.
