This is the kit you're looking for. The EMP 94-01270 Yoke \u0026amp; U-Joint Service Kit is built specifically for MerCruiser MR drives with serial number 0B418818 and below — the earlier production units that predate the updated configuration covered by the 94-01271. Same concept, right application for the older drives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe yoke and U-joint work as a team to transfer rotational power from the engine through the drive unit at the angles a sterndrive demands. Over time, wear shows up as vibration underway, clunking during throttle changes, or play in the drivetrain that wasn't there before. Replacing both components together with a quality service kit like this one is the right call — it restores smooth, confident power delivery and saves you from pulling the drive a second time when the other component gives out a season later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEMP (Elite Marine Parts) builds the 94-01270 to OEM-equivalent specifications, so the fit and performance match what MerCruiser engineered these early MR drives around. At approximately 5.35 lbs, it's a solid, well-built kit that's ready to go straight from the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEMP yoke and U-joint service kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePart Number: 94-01270\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: approximately 5.35 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits MerCruiser MR drives, serial number 0B418818 and below\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOEM-equivalent fit and performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCovers yoke and U-joint assembly components for a complete service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDirect replacement — no modification required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe serial number cutoff between this kit and the 94-01271 is 0B418818 — below that, you're here.
