1556514 Bushing | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

This genuine Volvo Penta bushing is a replaceable locating, spacing or bearing-support component used in the shaft or gear 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 a replaceable bearing surface and maintains the specified running clearance. Fitment is controlled by the exact engine or product configuration and serialised parts list; confirm OEM number 1556514 against the installed assembly before ordering.

🔌 Function

The bushing acts as a replaceable wear sleeve and locating element between two moving or mating engine components, maintaining correct alignment and clearance. It absorbs friction and load so that the more expensive surrounding housing or shaft does not wear.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Excessive play or slop in the assembly the bushing supports
• Visible scoring, ovalling or elongation of the bushing bore
• Knocking, rattling or clicking noises from the mounting point under load
• Bushing has spun, loosened or migrated out of its bore
• Accelerated wear or misalignment of the mating shaft or pin

🛠️ 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
