Re: 1988 Force 125 Bellows
If this is the same as the three-inch diameter bellows for a 1990 120 HP, most dealers can order one - $204.00!<br />I bought a 3" diameter, 6 foot section of "flexible" exhaust hose (capable of a 3 inch radius bend, as advertised) for $65.00 (enough for 3 bellows sections @ about $22.00 each) Sorry I can't remember which website I found it on. To make a smooth bend, I inserted one of my kids water toys (a high density foam tube for the pool, about 2.5 inches in diameter and 6 feet long into the section of hose), and carefully coaxed the hose into several coils and secured it with a strap for a few days so it could "get used to this configuration" prior to cutting it into 3 bellows sections. The foam insert helpos the hose resist the tendancy to crimp/collapse as it is bent into shape. be sure to use exhaust hose adhesive when installing.<br />I know, I know...but it works!
