Since Mercury identifies it as the driveshaft housing seal kit for Bravo sterndrives, it is the right type of kit for renewing the sealing components in that service area. This is a practical service inference based on Mercury's documented application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall 16709A2 only after confirming the correct Bravo driveshaft housing application for the unit being serviced. Because this is a grouped seal kit for the driveshaft housing, it should be matched to the exact Bravo service layout rather than ordered by appearance alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlternate\/Superseded Part Numbers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCurrent sources connect older Mercury OEM number \u003cstrong\u003e16709A1\u003c\/strong\u003e to active part number \u003cstrong\u003e16709A2\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParts Desk Insight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith seal kits like this, the important match is the \u003cstrong\u003eexact drive family and housing section\u003c\/strong\u003e.
