It supports and locates the associated shaft, bearing, seal, and shim components within the upper driveline housing. This is the housing itself — not a complete bearing rebuild kit. Bearings, seals, O-rings, and shims are separate components identified individually in the Volvo Penta parts diagram.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolvo Penta DPH-D\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolvo Penta DPH-D1 (including SN 3020295798 and later configurations)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolvo Penta DPR-D\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConfirm the exact sterndrive model and serial number against the applicable Volvo Penta drive shaft and bearing housing diagram before ordering.

The most common issue is customers assuming the bearings, seals, and shims are included. When servicing this assembly, identify all required bearings, seals, O-rings, and shims separately from the exact drive diagram before ordering. This is a precision driveline component — confirm drive model and serial number before processing the order, and ensure the customer has the full workshop procedure before starting the job.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43563991367716,"sku":"22173381","price":571.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/images_4ed97aa0-3707-42e3-928b-ad860f5f9170.jpg?v=1787451879","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/volvo-278","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
