Volvo Penta DPI-A Transom Shield Pivot Pin — OEM Part 22879573
Part Number: 22879573
Brand: Volvo Penta
Official Product Type: Transom Shield Pivot Pin
Diagram Position: 17 in the DPI-A transom shield assembly
Sold: Individually
This is the genuine Volvo Penta OEM pivot pin for the DPI-A transom shield assembly. It is a structural pivot component within the shield's trim and pivot hardware, working alongside bushings, O-rings, and trim service components. This pin occupies a specific position in the assembly and is distinct from the companion Pivot Pin 22880080, which occupies a different position in the same shield.
Compatible Applications
- Volvo Penta DPI-A
- TSK DPI-A transom shield assemblies
Confirm the exact drive and transom-shield model before ordering. The DPI-A shield uses two separate pivot pin references — 22879573 and 22880080 — at different positions. They are not interchangeable.
When This Part Needs Replacement
Inspect the pivot pin whenever the transom shield is disassembled for service. Replace if you find:
- Corrosion or pitting on the pin surface
- Scoring at bushing contact surfaces
- Distortion or impact damage
- Excessive wear or play in the pivot assembly

Parts Desk Insights
Best use case: This pin is the correct replacement when the DPI-A transom shield pivot assembly is being serviced and the diagram or serial-number lookup confirms position 17. It is a transom shield component — not a steering linkage or engine-mounted pin — so confirming the assembly diagram before ordering is the most reliable fitment check.
Common customer questions: The DPI-A shield contains two pivot pins — this one (22879573) and 22880080. They look similar but occupy different positions and are not interchangeable. Always cross-reference the diagram position number (17 for this part) to confirm the correct pin before ordering.
