1556372 Bushing | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

This genuine Volvo Penta bushing is a replaceable locating, spacing or bearing-support component used in the rear shaft support. It is manufactured to the original Volvo Penta dimensions and interface requirements so the supported component retains the specified clearance, spacing and location. In service, it provides the rear replaceable bearing surface for the matched shaft. Fitment is controlled by the exact engine or product configuration and serialised parts list; confirm OEM number 1556372 against the installed assembly before ordering.

🔌 Function

The bushing provides a precise wear surface and locating fit between fuel system components, keeping parts correctly aligned under load. It absorbs friction and movement so that the surrounding, more expensive components are protected from wear.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Excessive play or slop in the assembly it locates
• Visible wear, scoring or ovality of the bore
• Knocking, rattling or vibration from the mounting point under load
• Misalignment of the connected linkage or component
• Fuel weeping or seepage where the bushing no longer holds a correct fit

🛠️ Service Notes

• Check the housing bore and the shaft or pin that runs in the bushing before fitting a new one; a worn or scored mating part will chew out a new bushing quickly
• Press bushings in squarely with a press and a correctly sized drift or mandrel — hammering one straight in distorts it and ruins the fit
• Where the bushing has an oil hole, groove or slot, line it up with the feed in the housing before it is pressed home
• Lubricate on assembly with the oil or grease specified for that part of the engine or drive, and follow the manual if it calls for the bore to be checked or sized after fitting
• Do not soak a self-lubricating bushing in solvent or degreaser, and keep sealant and thread lock off the running surface
