Mercury Bravo Drive
Features:

Smooth shifts, exceptional low- and high-speed handling, durable and high thrust delivery are some of the reasons Bravo Drives are chosen to maximize performance on the finest boats.

Featuring a patented cone clutch and shift engagement strategy with MPI engines, these drives shift like silk while delivering rock-crushing torque. As a result, MerCruiser's Bravo drives deliver best-in-class shifting.

Applications:
Standard-all gasoline engines - 4.3L / 5.0L / 6.2L / 350 MAG-496 MAG

Bravo 3 - A SSM DRIVE

Features:

Large driveshaft splines provide greater torsional strength. Large vertical bearings in the upper housing provide increased rigidity for the driven gear and longer life. Large pinion bearings hold lower bevel gears more rigidly resulting in increased bearing life. Large propeller shaft is rear-loading for improved shaft contact with the propeller. Inputs ratings are 750 h.p. and up to 750 foot-pounds of torgue. Extended nose on the gearcase improves water flow and boat handling.

Drive-line and plug-in modules available. Transmission required. Counter rotation models available for multiple engine applications.

Gear ratios:(RH or LH) 1:1, 1.18:1, 1.33:1, 1.48:1, 1.62:1.

Bravo 5 - SSM DRIVE

Features:

Large driveshaft splines provide greater torsional strength. Large vertical bearings in the upper housing provide increased rigidity for the driven gear and longer life. Large pinion bearings hold lower bevel gears more rigidly resulting in increased bearing life. Large propeller shaft is rear-loading for improved shaft contact with the propeller. Inputs ratings are 750 h.p. and up to 750 foot-pounds of torgue. Extended nose on the gearcase improves water flow and boat handling.

Drive-line and plug-in modules available. Transmission required. Counter rotation models available for multiple engine applications.

Overall installation height is 6" shorter than the Bravo 3 - A SSM DRIVE. This allows the engine to be mounted lower in the boat, resulting in a better center of gravity. The gearcase is mounted higher on the transom resulting in better performance.

Gear ratios:(RH or LH) 1:1, 1.18:1, 1.33:1, 1.48:1, 1.62:1.

Spacers available.

Bravo 6 - DRY SUMP

Features:

Swept-back skeg design. Innovative dry-sump lubrication system uses one-fifth the quantity of gear oil used in previous models. A precision oiling pump, mounted in the gear housing, sprays a metered portion of oil to lubricate vital internal components. The reduced amount of oil in the sump reduces friction, adding 50 to 80 propshaft horsepower for improved overall boat performance.

Available with the HP900 SC engine. Upper gear housing allows for quick change of gear ratios. Design features a simplified tie-bar arrangement. Large, heavy-duty unniversal joint and driveshaft. Input ratings are 1000 h.p. and up to 1000 foot-pounds of torque. Hydraulic power steering cylinders are designed into the drive unit. Drive-line and plug-in models available. Spacers are available to lower drive unit up to 3" in 1/2" increments.

Gear ratios:(RH or LH) 1.24:1, 1.35:1, 1.5:1, 1.61:1.

Huber 1450 SERIES transmission required for the HP900 SC Dry-Sump.
