1988 and 1998 Johnson 60hp 3cyl-are they the same outboard??

[tc3drivers]

I have a 1988 60hp 3 cylinder with 1 dead cylinder and looking to replace it with a 1998 model 3 cylinder. Can I use the lower unit and carbs from my dead 1988 on the 1998? I don't want to assume they are the same, so I'll hear from the experts here. Thanks.

Go to the website and cross check some major components part numbers. That should tell you what will interchange.
