The Volvo Penta Drive Unit 22491362 is a genuine Volvo Penta DPS-D OX / OceanX DuoProp drive unit with a 2.32:1 gear ratio. It is used in Volvo Penta marine propulsion applications where the drive package and parts diagram specify this exact ratio and drive-unit number. This is a high-value propulsion component, so the gear ratio, drive model, transom/upper-drive compatibility, and existing drive identification should all match before ordering.

Application Compatibility
Use this drive unit where the Volvo Penta propulsion diagram calls for 22491362 and the installation requires the DPS-D OX / OceanX DuoProp 2.32:1 drive configuration. Related drive-unit options in the same DPS-D OX group include 22491356, 22491360, and 22491361, which should not be interchanged without confirming the correct gear ratio and drive specification.
Fitment Notice
Drive-unit fitment depends on the exact Volvo Penta drive model, gear ratio, transom assembly, upper/lower configuration, propeller setup, engine package, and serial number. The 2.32:1 ratio is the key identifying detail for 22491362. Do not match this part by appearance alone, since similar DPS-D OX drive units may have different internal ratios or application requirements.
When This Part Needs Replacement
Replace the drive unit when inspection confirms major drive damage, gear failure, water intrusion, bearing damage, housing damage, severe corrosion, impact damage, or internal wear that cannot be corrected with normal resealing or component-level service. Symptoms may include gear noise, metal in the drive oil, shifting problems, water-contaminated gear oil, propeller-shaft damage, or loss of propulsion under load.
Installation Notes
Installation should follow the Volvo Penta service procedure for the exact drive and transom package. Inspect the transom shield, bellows, shift cable, steering helmet/fork components, trim cylinders, propeller shaft seals, gear oil condition, anodes, mounting hardware, and propeller set during replacement. Confirm whether the replacement is for a complete drive unit, lower drive section, or another drive assembly before ordering related hardware or service parts.

Parts Desk Insight
The key detail on this drive unit is the 2.32:1 DPS-D OX ratio. Similar OceanX DuoProp drive units can look alike externally, but ratio and drive configuration determine whether the unit is correct for the boat. Matching the serial number, existing drive tag, and Volvo Penta propulsion diagram helps ensure the correct replacement drive is ordered.
