⚙️ Key Features

• Drive shaft
• 37.65 kg - the second longest of the family sharing this fitment
• Listed for six applications across IPS pod drives and D series engines

🔌 Function

Carries engine torque along the driveline to the pod drive, spanning the distance between the two couplings without flexing.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Vibration that builds with shaft speed rather than with load
• Clonk on gear engagement or on a change of direction
• Rust or fretting powder at the splines when the shaft is withdrawn
• Spline flanks worn or twisted on strip-down
• Runout at the coupling faces when the shaft is checked on rollers

🛠️ Service Notes

• Five shafts share this fitment list and differ only in length, so order by part number after measuring the installation
• Correct the driveline alignment before fitting a new shaft, or the replacement will wear the same way
