Volvo Penta SX lower Unit Disassembly Procedures Part 1

- In this video I demonstrate how to disassemble a Volvo Penta SX lower unit. This is the first video of this series. The next upcoming part 2 video will be on how to measure the gears to properly shim the drive prior to reassembly.
I unfortunately had an impact accident (hit a rock) with my Sting Ray SX and damaged the lower half of my outdrive. The upper half was fine. I was shocked when I learned how much an OEM replacement cost! Needless to say, I will be more careful and Ted's video helps me understand how I might rebuild my lower VP SX outdrive in the future vs. replacing it again!
I also rebuild them and have a couple of sx lowers in stock if needed at half the cost of new.
@tedsmarinerepair8956 how can we contact you I think my lower unit is toast how much volvo penta sx-mlt

Great video, excellent narration and explanation of tools and steps required, true professional. Just what I have been searching for.
Glad to help!
Nothing like having the right tools 👍😁
Very True! This video is mostly for VP dealers/techs and my tech students.
Do you rebuild outdrives
Or sell rebuilt outdrives
@@edwardwalthorn9756 Yes, depending on what your looking for. Please email me at marinedoc01@yahoo.com
Do you have the parts number of the right tool please
Merci beaucoup ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You didn’t show pulling out the prop shaft. Mine has a slight bend in it, which I need to replace. Is it as simple as pulling out the bent shaft and sticking in a new one?
I need to press the bearing off the prop shaft. How does the prop shaft come out as this part was skipped in the video?
That's in the manual. You need the special tool
I have the same question as a lot of other commenters is that you skipped the part or did not show removing the driveshaft. I have to replace my driveshaft as it is bent and I need to know how to do it. Be nice to have a video that shows how to do it. Cannot find a video on prop shaft removal on TH-cam at all.
Is that the propshaft Or vertical driveshaft your asking about.
At around 6 mins that view of the gear case, is that front cavity exhaust? If I’m leaking water there is it a problem? Thanks.
Great video, did the prop shaft just come out by just loosening carrier bearing
I have the same question, but I can't find an answer anywhere. This is the closest to that detail I've found and it just jumps to the shaft being removed
Great video. Any advice if the pinion gear is firmly stuck on the vertical shaft?
you need the VP puller for that, if you evenly tighten down on the bolts it will pop
@@tedsmarinerepair8956 Thank you so much for the quick reply. If its not too much trouble, do you happen to have a part # for that tool? I can't seem to find the proper tool. Its to remove the vertical shaft from the stuck pinion gear (maybe the lower bearing?

You said the upgrade is the sx-a so would that bolt up to the existing upperhalf of the sx system or would you need to re gear the upper half of the sx to accept the sx-a lower 🤔
The previous DPS and the SX drive were replaced by the DPS-A & SX-A in 2006. They are not interchangeable
I have a Volvo Penta Cobra SX and I noticed when running on the muffs I have a fair amount of water coming out of the area where the front of the lower gear case bolts on. Is this cause for concern? I never really saw that before. Thanks.
Please email me a video of this at marinedoc01@yahoo.com so I can see exactly what's going on.
Do you rebuild outdrives for the public
Hello i had to drill out the 3/8 bolt in there. Do you have any tips on how I can now remove the rest of the bolt? It is difficult to access with tools.
Can you send me a couple of pics to marinedoc01@yahoo.com
Can this particular model be upgraded be a dp driver?
Sorry but not cost worthy, the issue is with the combined gear ratios of both the upper and the lower. Typically the upper gear ratio will also need to be re-geared to match the desired overall gear ratio for a DPS application. Remember you are trying to add another prop which changes the load on the engine.
