Penta 250 drive shaft bellow replacment

Hi everyone, I saw this post from Don about not having to remove the entire drive assembly in order to replace the bellows on a 250 which was a HUGE relief when I saw this!

I'm stopping by and getting my replacement bellow tonight and should have things ship shape in a couple days (weather pending).

My question is after seeing Don's picture, the only part that needs to come off is the top part (which he is referring to as the upper gear box) the rest of the drive can stay in place. Are there any additional gaskets that I should get before I start this project?

Anyone else attempt this and have any extra tips or tricks that they came across?

Yes, there is other gaskets.
Go to the link you posted and scroll down and read the other replies. There are PN's for the orings.

Thanks Don! Sorry I missed that part of it! I'll swing by my local marina today at lunch and see if they have them in stock.
