Good To Know

Q: Why does the carbon ring matter on a Sea-Doo? A: It seals the driveshaft opening in the hull so water stays out of the engine compartment while the shaft turns. A worn ring can let water seep in, so replacing it during driveline service protects the bilge.

Q: Should the carbon ring be replaced on its own? A: Many riders replace it alongside the floating ring and related driveline seals to refresh the whole sealing surface. Check the mating ring for scoring and replace anything that shows wear.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
