Carbon Ring Kit for Sea-Doo GSX 800

This carbon ring kit is a driveline sealing assembly for the Sea-Doo GSX 800, designed to seat against the driveshaft and hold the floating seal in place so water stays out of the hull.

Overview

This carbon ring kit for Sea-Doo GSX 800 personal watercraft replaces the worn sealing ring at the driveshaft support. The carbon ring kit keeps the through-hull seal tight so the engine bay stays dry and the shaft spins freely under load. Riders and mechanics buying for the Sea-Doo GSX 800 will find this carbon ring kit a direct service item for routine driveline maintenance.

Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: How do I know the carbon ring needs replacing? A: Water in the engine bay, a visible gap at the seal, or grooving on the ring surface all point to replacement. Inspect the ring whenever the driveshaft is removed for other service.

Q: Can the carbon ring be installed without pulling the engine? A: On most Sea-Doo GSX 800 hulls the ring is serviced from the rear by removing the jet pump and driveshaft. Check your service manual for the exact procedure on your model year.

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