The Right Gaskets for a Leak-Free Bell Housing Installation
The Quicksilver 94996Q2 Bell Housing Installation Gasket Kit gives you all six gaskets needed to properly seal and protect the bell housing on MerCruiser R, MR, and Alpha One Gen II sterndrives. Built to Mercury Marine OEM specifications, these gaskets ensure correct mating of metal surfaces and a durable seal that holds up to the demands of sterndrive use.
What’s Included
- 6-piece bell housing gasket set (all gaskets required for installation)
Key Features
- Complete 6-piece kit — everything needed for a full bell housing installation, nothing to source separately
- OEM specifications — manufactured to Mercury Marine original equipment tolerances for proper fit and long service life
- Durable materials — gasket, seal, and O-ring materials selected for marine sterndrive environments
- Correct mating surfaces — ensures metal-to-metal surfaces are properly protected and sealed at installation
Compatibility
Fits MerCruiser R, MR, and Alpha One Gen II sterndrives (serial number 6225577 and above, 1983 and newer). For related bell housing components, see the Mercury MerCruiser Quicksilver Bell Housing Installation Gasket Kit 94996T2 and the Mercury MerCruiser Alpha Bell Housing Rubber Gasket 27-8M0204656. If you’re also servicing the U-joint bellows during this job, consider the Quicksilver U-Joint Bellows for Alpha One Gen II.
Parts Desk Insights
This kit is best used any time the bell housing is being removed — whether for a U-joint bellows replacement, gimbal bearing service, or drive removal for winterization. Never reuse old bell housing gaskets; they compress and take a set over time and will not reseal reliably. If you’re already in this area of the drive, it’s worth inspecting the U-joint bellows and gimbal bearing at the same time to avoid a repeat teardown. Confirm your serial number is 6225577 or above before ordering.
