The kit is machined to precise tolerances so the seals seat correctly in the lower gear housing bore, helping maintain the gear lube seal that keeps water out of the drive and gear oil in. It is used during lower unit rebuilds, gear housing seal replacement, and general stern drive maintenance whenever the lower unit is opened up for service. Sierra manufactures the kit to meet or exceed the original equipment part it replaces, and it is designed to be interchangeable with GLM, Mallory, and Mercruiser OEM seal part numbers, so it drops into the same lower unit application without modification. Because it is a small, precision-machined component, proper installation depth and orientation matter for a leak-free seal, so it should be installed following the stern drive manufacturer's lower unit service procedure. This kit is intended for the specific Mercruiser drive models and year ranges listed below; confirm your drive model and serial number range before ordering to ensure correct fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e
