# 3802456 Drive Unit Reman | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta remanufactured drive unit weighing 320.24 kg and listed for six applications across the D and IPS families. It supersedes part number 3801874, which was catalogued as a remanufactured inboard drive - the same unit under a different name, so a search for a drive unit alone will miss the older reference and it is worth quoting both numbers. At 320 kg it is a crated, crane-handled item that cannot go out on a normal parcel service. This unit is supplied on an exchange basis: core deposit 3805456 is charged alongside it and refunded once the old unit is returned, so both numbers appear on the order.
