  5. Apply a light coat of marine grease to the U-joint shaft to ease installation and protect against corrosion.
  6. Slide the new U-joint bellow onto the shaft, ensuring it is fully seated on both ends.
  7. Position the included stainless steel hose clamp over each end of the bellow and tighten securely.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I confirm this U-joint bellow fits my stern drive?
A: Check the Compatible Engine Models table above and verify your drive model (OMC Cobra 1986-1998, or Volvo Penta SX/DP series). Cross-reference the OEM part numbers on your existing bellow to ensure compatibility.

Q: How often should I replace the U-joint bellow?
A: Inspect the U-joint bellow annually for cracks, tears, or leaks as part of routine maintenance. Replace immediately if any damage is found, or every 3–5 years as preventive maintenance to avoid water intrusion and costly gimbal bearing or U-joint failure.

Q: What are the common signs that my U-joint bellow has failed?
A: Common symptoms include water in the bilge near the stern drive, visible cracks or tears in the bellow, difficulty steering, or unusual noises from the gimbal area. Immediate replacement is necessary if any of these signs appear.

I like the content
Good for my biblical education. The book was recommended by a Pastor who visited the church. I read it and found it very informative and inspiring. These books are worth reading continuously. And more than just reading its content must be acted upon.

Awesome Beyond Mere Words
Format: Paperback
Unaware of its full content within, I found this book has revolutionized my inner self's awareness: of WHO I am in Christ, and Who's Inside Me and has been since accepting Christ! This book helped to 'show the way' how; to convert from academic "knowing" thinking to "Spirit-led living." This is a major transitional shift, but one God wants, the Spirit led me to, and what my prayers had been asking for all along without MY-understanding even realizing it! until I 'let go of MY-understanding and let Holy Spirit have the upper hand. It's really a "tuff job!" but one 'worth fighting for'; by letting go. With His 'Power' within, there's no other way but UP. I strongly recommend this book to those seeking a closer/deeper connection with Jesus Christ and God's Holy Spirit. The wording is so very easy to read, yet its depth very profound.

The Supernatural You
I was pleasantly surprised by 'The Supernatural You' by Brenda Kunneman. She exposes you to the power that every believer has inside of them, but is rarely teached in the average church. She talks about her growing up and how she learned about this supernatural power. Very practical tips on how to access your hidden power. I would recommend it to other Christians that want to go deeper in God. Ironically - I hit "Buy This Book" by accident. Now I realize it wasn't an accident....

Biblically sound, step-by-step instruction
Format: Paperback
If you're ready to challenge the current, prevalent (and wrong!) paradigm, this book may be for you: Yes, it IS possible for modern-day, born-again Christians to live in miracles as did the first apostles after receiving the Holy Spirit (Holy Ghost) at Pentecost. This book guides you through the process of stepping into that full, abundant life promised by God.
