connector kit

Do anyone sell a kit to couple a Volvo dph drive to a Yanmar 6lp 315 hp? I am just tired of my Bravo III X breaking down. Maybe Volvo drive would be a better option?!

Big thanks!

Re: connector kit

Have you tried a B3 XR? What exactly is breaking?

Re: connector kit

Thanks for your reply Mbam.

No I have not tried the Bravo 3 xr, is it much stronger?

The thing that happens is that forward gear gets difficult to engage like its slipping,(does cone get worn quickly?)
My local Merc mechanic here in Sweden says it is a common problem with diesel engines coupled to B3

The engine gives approx. 560 ft lbs torque, and the boat is a deep V weighing 5000 lbs, 30 ft long
