1997 seadoo GTI driveshaft ???

[Davidl9566]

The top is the used replacement shaft l, is it going to fit in my 97 seadoo gti?

I would say no, it is a different length and the clip for the stainless hat of the seal is in the wrong spot.

I agree with this. Even if you could get it in and back together. The position of the c-clip slot is critical.

Any idea what the correct part number is for mine?

According to the 1997 Parts Catalog - 272 000 127 Drive shaft (for the GTI)

That is supposed to be what I ordered. Maybe they listed theirs as the wrong part?

It is entirely possible that the lister/seller does not know the different part numbers for the ski. I don’t have the other part number for the same year ski but different model with me currently.

Seller definitely sent the wrong one.

That’s why I only buy used parts from Westside Powersports.

The listing is INCORRECT!

1997 GTS drive shaft = 272000 073

1997 GTI drive shaft = 272 000 127

Correct, they are two different hulls. The GTS is the old original 3 seater hull.
