860682 Bracket | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta bracket, early type, from the Steering group. It weighs 0.281 kg and is listed for 17 applications across TAMD, TMD, SHIELD, MD, KAD and KAMD series units. Bracket 860683 is listed with an identical early type note, the same 17 applications and the same engine list, so the two are almost certainly a pair rather than alternatives.

• Bracket found bent or previously levered into line
• Corrosion wasting the bracket at a load-bearing section

🛠️ Service Notes

• Bracket 860683 carries the same early type note and the same fitment list, and nothing in the published detail separates the two beyond the part number - order by number and, if you are not certain which side or position you need, check both against the parts that came off
• Steering components are safety-related; do not straighten or reuse a bracket that is cracked or bent
