Sierra 18-2646-1 Lower Unit Seal Kit for Alpha One Gen II Sterndrives
The Sierra 18-2646-1 Lower Unit Seal Kit is a complete, single-package seal kit engineered for Alpha One Gen II sterndrives, including the Alpha One Gen II (CR) variant. It is built to reseal the lower unit during a gearcase rebuild or when addressing gear lube leaks, restoring a proper seal against water intrusion and lubricant loss. The kit ships as one count per package, so the full set of lower unit seals needed for the job is included together rather than sold as loose individual seals. Components in the kit are round in shape with a white finish. Sierra backs this kit, like all Sierra parts, with its customer satisfaction warranty.
This kit is specific to the Alpha One Gen II family and covers a broad span of production serial numbers, from early 1991-1995 units through 1998-2010 units. It is not the correct kit for the earlier Alpha One SS or for Bravo I/Bravo II sterndrives, which use different Sierra kit numbers.
