Serial Number Fitment Notice

Match the engine or drive model, serial number and exact assembly callout before ordering. An engine family alone does not identify every installed drive or component.

Installation Notes

Use the drive service manual for bearing-carrier disassembly. Seat the ring completely in its groove and inspect the associated bearing and seal before reassembly.
