Installation Notes
- Safely haul the vessel and secure the sterndrive in a raised, accessible position.
- Disconnect the battery to prevent any accidental starts during work.
- Remove the propeller and existing anodes from the drive housing.
- Carefully detach the old U-joint and exhaust bellows, noting the orientation of the clamps.
- Install the new bellows, ensuring a tight and secure seal with the provided clamps.
- Replace the tilt bushings, O-rings, and gaskets as you reassemble the drive components.
- Install the new aluminum anodes. Do not paint anodes, as it prevents them from functioning correctly.
- Re-install the sterndrive, making sure all connections are secure and torqued to the manufacturer's specifications.
- Before launching the vessel, lower the drive and thoroughly inspect for any leaks.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this kit fits my specific Volvo Penta engine?
This kit is designed specifically for Volvo Penta DPC, DPD, and DPE sterndrive models. It is not compatible with other drive series like SX or DPS. Always verify your drive model, which is typically found on a decal on the drive unit itself.
What are the signs that my sterndrive bellows need replacing?
Telltale signs include visible cracks, perishing, or splits in the rubber. Other symptoms are water in your bilge (from a leaking U-joint bellow) or a change in exhaust noise (from a leaking exhaust bellow). Regular inspection during annual service is critical.
Why does the kit include aluminum anodes instead of zinc?
Aluminum anodes are the modern standard for versatile protection in saltwater, brackish water, and fresh water. They offer a superior balance of performance and longevity compared to zinc (saltwater only) or magnesium (freshwater only).
Can I replace just one component instead of the whole kit?
While possible, it is highly recommended to replace all bellows, seals, and related hardware at the same time. These components degrade at a similar rate, and replacing them together saves significant time, labor, and haul-out costs in the long run.
