Installation Guide

2. Access Drive: Trim the sterndrive to the full "up" or "trailer" position to access the bellows.
3. Remove Old Bellows: Carefully cut and remove the old clamps securing the exhaust and U-joint bellows. Pry the old bellows off their mounting points.
4. Remove Water Hose: Disconnect and remove the old water intake hose.
5. Clean Surfaces: Thoroughly clean the mounting grooves on both the transom assembly and the sterndrive to ensure a proper seal.
6. Install New Bellows: Fit the new U-joint and exhaust bellows into place. Ensure they are correctly seated in their grooves.
7. Install New Hose: Connect the new water pipe.
8. Secure Clamps: Position and tighten the new stainless steel clamps over the bellows to secure them firmly. Do not overtighten.
9. Inspect Work: Double-check that all components are correctly installed and securely fastened.
10. Test for Leaks: Lower the drive, reconnect the battery, and launch the boat. Run the engine and carefully inspect for any water or exhaust leaks around the new bellows.
