Fitment First

Bearings and bushings are precision parts. Match the part number, shaft size, drive model, transmission model, housing, material, and service location before ordering.

Search Bearing Bushings

Find the Right Part

Search by Part Number, Bearing Type, Bushing Type, Shaft Size, or Drive Model

Use the old part number whenever possible. If not, search by equipment brand plus the part location, such as gimbal bearing, shift shaft bushing, cutlass bearing, bearing carrier, or transmission bearing.

Fitment

Part Number, Location, and Measurements Come First

Bearings and bushings can be identified by part number, shaft size, outside diameter, width, housing, bore, thread, drive model, transmission model, and installation location. Measure carefully and avoid choosing only by a similar-looking photo.

Inspection

Noise, Play, Heat, Leaks, and Vibration Tell a Story

Unusual noise, shaft play, water intrusion, leaking seals, vibration, metal in oil, stiff steering, or repeated seal failure can point to bearing or bushing wear. Inspect the surrounding parts before replacing only one piece.

Gimbal KitsBearing SealsShim Sets
SIZE

Measure Carefully

Confirm bore, outside diameter, width, shaft size, housing fit, thread, and any stamped numbers before ordering.

SYSTEM

Know the Assembly

Drive, transmission, shaft, engine, trim, steering, and plumbing bushings all use different selection details.

WEAR

Find the Cause

Replace worn bearings and bushings, but also check seals, alignment, oil condition, mounts, shafts, carriers, and hardware.

FAQ

Choosing Bearings & Bushings

How do I choose the right bearing or bushing?

Start with the exact part number. If it is missing, identify the brand, assembly, shaft or bore size, outside diameter, width, housing, drive model, transmission model, and service location.

Are cutlass bearings selected by shaft size?

Shaft size is one of the most important details, but cutlass bearings also need the correct outside diameter, length, material, bearing code, and fit for the strut or stern tube.

When should a gimbal bearing be replaced?

Replace it when there is noise, roughness, water intrusion, corrosion, excessive play, seal failure, or during major sterndrive service when inspection shows wear.

Can the Parts Desk help identify a bearing?

Yes. Send the old part number, photos, measurements, engine or drive model, transmission details, and where the bearing or bushing is installed.

Ready to Match the Bearing or Bushing?

Use the old part number first. If it is missing, measure carefully and search by assembly, brand, shaft size, bearing style, bushing style, or service location.
