    Default OMC Cobra - U-Joints - which Part # ???

    I'm pretty sure i need to take my drive off to fix my reverse shifting problem. Since the drive will be off i would like to replace the gimbal bearing and u-joints as well along with the bellows and seals.

    Cant find anywhere the right part # I need for the u-joints. Can anyone help identifying it?

    I have a 1989 OMC Cobra outdrive with a 5.7L motor.

    www.sterndrive.info claims the OEM part # is 915717 whith translates to Sierra part #18-2174
    www.MarineEngineParts.com claims the OEM part # is 915716 which translates to Sierra part #18-2104

    Can't find the part on www.iboats.com

    which one is it??

    thanks

    Howdy,


    U-joints are fairly "Universal" (Pun intended!! )

    I did a search on this forum and found this thread.
