Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this bearing fits my Yamaha outboard?
The most reliable method is to check the compatibility table on this page. Match your engine's model, horsepower, and year range. You can also cross-reference your existing bearing's part number with the numbers listed in our Part Number Matrix.
What are the signs of a failing forward gear bearing?
Common symptoms include a grinding or whining noise from the lower unit (especially when in forward gear), excessive metal shavings on the magnetic drain plug, or difficulty shifting. In severe cases, it can lead to catastrophic gear failure.
Can a bad forward gear bearing cause shifting problems?
Yes. A worn or damaged bearing can create excess play in the gear assembly, leading to rough shifting, gear slippage, or an inability to engage forward gear properly.
When should this bearing be inspected or replaced?
The bearing should be inspected any time the lower unit is disassembled for other service (e.g., water pump replacement). It should be replaced immediately if you notice any signs of failure or as part of a complete lower unit rebuild.
Is this the only part I need for the replacement?
This listing is for the bearing only. A complete installation typically requires new seals, o-rings, and gaskets for the lower unit. We recommend consulting a service manual for a full list of required parts for your specific engine model.
What is the difference between this aftermarket part and an OEM part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part, not an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) component.

It is manufactured in an ISO 9002 certified facility and is batch-inspected to ensure quality and performance, offering a reliable alternative at a better value.
How fast is shipping and what does it cost?
