How can you determine shaft length of an engine? Specifically the big suzukis 200-225 without tearing down to measure the shaft. I must replace a lower unit but the 200 unit is unknown and the engine lower unit I am looking at is 25". Would the lower units be compatible regardless of length or is this critical. thanks for any help fast.

Re: Suzuki 200-225 1990

yes, the length is critical.<br /><br />best answer i can provide is to look at the relationship of the lower part of the pivot assembly-where the lower vibration mount connects. if that is below the bottom of the transom bracket its the 25" shaft, if above or equal then the 20.<br /><br />i too have had that question and scrutiny of the old catalog info is how i came up with this.
