Shift cables transmit the shift lever's movement from the control station down to the outdrive, and over time the cable core, end fittings, and bellows can wear, corrode, or develop play that leads to sloppy or unreliable gear engagement. This kit addresses that by supplying the cable and the associated hardware needed to restore proper shift feel and function in one package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInside the kit is the Bravo shift cable itself (Sierra 18-2145, equivalent to OEM 815471A3), a shift cable end kit (Sierra 18-2149, equivalent to OEM 43433), and a shift cable bellows (Sierra 18-2753-1) that seals the cable where it passes through the outdrive housing. The cable core is steel with a PVC insulating jacket for corrosion resistance and durability in the marine environment. As with all Sierra products, this kit is built to meet or exceed the specification of the original equipment part it replaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sierra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18-2604\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Category:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mercruiser Shift Cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bravo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKit Contents:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shift Cable 18-2145 (O.E. 815471A3, qty 1), Shift Cable End Kit 18-2149 (O.E. 43433, qty 1), Shift Cable Bellows 18-2753-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Steel (core), PVC (insulation)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.39 x 0.39 x 0.39 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.35 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnector Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 millimeters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 030999875143\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBravo outdrives\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e815471T1\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat outdrive does the Sierra 18-2604 fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sierra 18-2604 Lower Shift Cable Kit is designed for Bravo outdrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat OEM part number does this kit replace?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 18-2604 kit replaces OEM number 815471T1.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included in the 18-2604 kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The kit contains a Bravo shift cable (Sierra 18-2145, equivalent to OEM 815471A3), a shift cable end kit (Sierra 18-2149, equivalent to OEM 43433), and a shift cable bellows (Sierra 18-2753-1).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the shift cable in this kit genuine Sierra or aftermarket?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a Sierra-branded replacement part, built to meet or exceed the specification of the original 815471T1 equipment it replaces rather than being sourced from the original outdrive manufacturer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the shift cable made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e The shift cable in the 18-2604 kit uses a steel core with a PVC insulating jacket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the 18-2604 shift cable kit weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The complete kit weighs 1.35 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the kit include the bellows and end fitting, or just the cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the 18-2604 kit includes the shift cable, the shift cable end kit, and the shift cable bellows together, not just the cable alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this kit work on a shift cable that uses OEM number 815471A3?\u003c\/strong\u003e The shift cable portion of the 18-2604 kit (Sierra 18-2145) is the equivalent to OEM number 815471A3.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the UPC for the Sierra 18-2604 kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The UPC for the Sierra 18-2604 Lower Shift Cable Kit is 030999875143.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use just the end kit or bellows separately instead of the full kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 18-2604 is sold as a complete lower shift cable kit that bundles the cable (18-2145), end kit (18-2149), and bellows (18-2753-1) together as one part number.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sierra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48988107964635,"sku":"SIE-18-2604","price":160.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/SIE-18-2604_lg__95330.1558125219.500.750.jpg?v=1785188676","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/sierra-18-2604-lower-shift-cable-kit-for-mercruiser-bravo-sterndrives-replaces-oem-815471t1","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
