It works in conjunction with other gears—such as the pinion and forward gear—to enable smooth shifting and efficient transfer of engine power to the propeller. Precision-machined for durability and proper alignment, this gear ensures consistent performance under demanding marine conditions. If worn or damaged, it can lead to grinding, slipping, or reduced efficiency. Replacing it helps restore reliable operation and smooth drivetrain performance. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"801\" data-end=\"804\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"1j5qwet\" data-start=\"806\" data-end=\"825\"\u003e\u003cspan role=\"text\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"809\" data-end=\"825\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"827\" data-end=\"1199\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"11yvf1y\" data-start=\"827\" data-end=\"915\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"829\" data-end=\"861\"\u003ePower Transmission Component\u003c\/strong\u003e – Transfers rotational force within the lower unit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"bc395b\" data-start=\"916\" data-end=\"1015\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"918\" data-end=\"946\"\u003eSupports Gear Engagement\u003c\/strong\u003e – Works with other gears for smooth forward and reverse operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"w8saff\" data-start=\"1016\" data-end=\"1103\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1018\" data-end=\"1047\"\u003ePrecision-Machined Design\u003c\/strong\u003e – Ensures proper alignment and efficient performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"f9s45w\" data-start=\"1104\" data-end=\"1199\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1106\" data-end=\"1133\"\u003eOEM Yamaha Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e – Built to factory specifications for durability and exact fit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1201\" data-end=\"1204\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"1ww02hn\" data-start=\"1206\" data-end=\"1240\"\u003e\u003cspan role=\"text\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1209\" data-end=\"1240\"\u003eEngine \u0026amp; Boat Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1242\" data-end=\"1384\"\u003eCompatible with Yamaha outboards using this component within the \u003cstrong data-start=\"1307\" data-end=\"1341\"\u003elower unit \/ gearcase assembly\u003c\/strong\u003e (commonly found in mid-range outboards).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1386\" data-end=\"1389\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"elc90z\" data-start=\"1391\" data-end=\"1401\"\u003e\u003cspan role=\"text\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1394\" data-end=\"1401\"\u003eFAQ\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1403\" data-end=\"1521\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1403\" data-end=\"1430\"\u003eQ: What does Gear 2 do?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1430\" data-end=\"1433\"\u003eA: It works with other gears to transfer engine power and enable smooth gear engagement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1523\" data-end=\"1675\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1523\" data-end=\"1564\"\u003eQ: Is this a forward or reverse gear?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1564\" data-end=\"1567\"\u003eA: It is typically part of the gear set and may function as a reverse or driven gear depending on the setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1677\" data-end=\"1802\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1677\" data-end=\"1720\"\u003eQ: What are signs it needs replacement?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1720\" data-end=\"1723\"\u003eA: Grinding noise, slipping gears, vibration, or reduced propulsion efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1804\" data-end=\"1900\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1804\" data-end=\"1841\"\u003eQ: Is this inside the lower unit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1841\" data-end=\"1844\"\u003eA: Yes, it is an internal component within the gearcase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1902\" data-end=\"2033\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1902\" data-end=\"1935\"\u003eQ: Is installation difficult?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1935\" data-end=\"1938\"\u003eA: Yes, it requires lower unit disassembly and is typically handled by experienced technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yamaha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46938245398819,"sku":"689-45571-00-00","price":186.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0783\/7410\/9475\/files\/PV234780.jpg?v=1698804767","url":"https:\/\/partsvu.com\/en-mx\/products\/yamaha-gear-2-689-45571-00-00","provider":"PartsVu","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
