Hello all, I just got my boat back from mechanic for lower unit reseal job and he told me that when he finally got the unit apart (had to use heat) that he did not get the warm fuzzies at what he saw. There were pieces of gear metal which he managed to to get out and he said I should start looking for a backup lower unit soon. I change lower oil after each outing hoping to make unit last til new one can be found. If anyone can find me a good CHEAP lower unit I sure would appreciate it.<br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />email mkasper@swri.edu

Do good and cheap mean the same thing? Sorry! I couldn't help it. Just can't help but wonder why you don't just replace the gear set now while the case is still good. If you want a GOOD replacement at a FAIR price call Jack at Superior Marine at 800-338-9281. If you choose to have the unit rebuilt be very careful whose gears you use. There are some really bad pieces out there right now.<br /><br />Good luck!
