  • CR265F-1 Driver

Question:  

Is the recone kit C2R265-1 compatible with the older 265F (non-1) driver?


Answer:

No, the C2R265-1 and the C2R265 are different units and are not interchangeable.

While the cones may appear visually similar, the technical specifications and construction differ between the "-1" version and the original version. Using a C2R265-1 kit on an original 265F driver will not work correctly.

The original C2R265 recone kit has been discontinued. If you need to service an original 265F driver, you have two options:

  • Replacement Driver: There is currently very limited stock of the complete original driver under part number 362048-002X (M/I, 265F).
  • Third-Party Sellers: If factory stock is depleted, the best remaining option is to source the original part through a third-party online seller.

Additional Information:

  • Always verify the specific suffix of your driver model (e.g., "F" vs "-1") before ordering recone kits to ensure proper fitment and performance.
