## ⚙️ Key Features

-   Bell housing from the Marine Propulsion group
-   10.89 kg
-   Supersedes 21440998
-   Listed for 21 applications across DPH, D and DPI drives
-   Machined faces set driveline alignment

## 🔌 Function

Joins the engine to the drive or transmission, enclosing the coupling and holding the two assemblies in concentric alignment.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Vibration or a knock that appears under load rather than at a set speed
-   Oil weeping from the joint faces or collecting inside the housing
-   Coupling and spline wear traced back to misalignment
-   Spigot or register bore worn, so the assemblies no longer locate
-   Cracks around a mounting boss or a stripped tapping, found on strip-down

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Check the register bore and both mating faces for damage before rebuilding - the housing is what sets alignment, and a bruised face throws it out
-   Renew the gaskets, seals and any stretched fasteners at the same time
