Mercruise 454 Bravo Outdrive Help

[20pilot]

Can anyone help identify what drive I have:

Engine: 0F800890
Transom: 0F832761
Drive: 0K096819

The boat has been in the water for about 6 years straight with no protection to the outdrive. It looks like electrolysis got the best of it and I need to replace the entire drive. There is nothing on the drive other and oxidation.

Are there any aftermarket/Reman available?

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Your drive tells us you have a 2.00 ratio drive and I'll guess it's a Bravo 1 (appears 1996). There are several places which sell reman's (google), some good some no so. Look for a guarantee of at least a year and what happens if there is a claim.

Now if its just oxidation just clean it up, got pics?

I would pull the boat and see what it looks like. The drive may be easily salvageable.

Well I pulled the boat and there at pin holes all over. There was no gear oil even in it just water. I am just wanting to make sure I order the correct unit.

Agree, do a complete inspect to see what else you may need.

Yes I have and I do have a parts list. I am replacing the entire transom seal kit: bellows, gimble bearing, gaskets and seals.

Anyone have a suggestion on where to buy a new/reman unit?
