Because bushings can vary by shield, fork, and steering-related assembly version, fitment should still be treated as \u003cstrong\u003edrive- and serial-specific\u003c\/strong\u003e and verified to the exact unit before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSerial Number Fitment Notice\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlways confirm \u003cstrong\u003e852912\u003c\/strong\u003e against the exact Volvo Penta drive serial number and the correct parts diagram before ordering. That is the safest way to match the bushing to the correct suspension fork, steering support, or transom shield assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen This Part Needs Replacement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReplace this bushing when the original part is worn, loose, cracked, seized, ovalled, or no longer supporting the related fork or steering\/pivot component correctly. On sterndrive steering and suspension-related assemblies, worn bushings can contribute to excess play, poor alignment, and accelerated wear in surrounding parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstall only in the correct matched Volvo Penta application. Inspect the related pin, fork, steering support area, and surrounding bore surfaces before reassembly, and follow the correct Volvo Penta service information for the serial-numbered drive. Correct fit and bore condition matter just as much as the replacement bushing itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlternate\/Superseded Part Numbers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCurrent sources reviewed list this part under Volvo Penta number \u003cstrong\u003e852912\u003c\/strong\u003e. One current replacement-market reference also associates it with aftermarket equivalent \u003cstrong\u003eREC852912\u003c\/strong\u003e.

Replacing a worn bushing before it damages the surrounding fork or shield hardware is usually a smart move during steering or suspension service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShipping: Ships same or next day for fast Canada wide shipping. ⚓\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43564047532068,"sku":"852912","price":90.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/a3d2be93-d2f1-4590-97af-79aa905e4215.png?v=1776191204","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/volvo-penta-852912-bushing","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
