I have a cracked lower stern drive housing. Does anyone know where I can find a replacement? Seems to be a hard part to find being made by Yamaha.

Re: Cracked Lower Stern Drive

Just a thought?

Can you get it welded or is it really that badly busted?

The cases are aluminum arent they? And like a ripped off skeg they can fix as good as new. May have to pull the guts out of the case to do the job from both sides.

It must be relally busted if you cant get it welded though Im thinking.

Thanks - I have added Yamaha to the Title and added a few pics of the crack.

A few people have told me that it cannot be welded due to the location of the crack.

Welding isn't an Option,... The tolerances would Never be Right......
