will a 1994 evinrude 200 hp lower unit work on a 1984 evinrude 150 hp. looks like all bolts will be the same but will they be geared different? thanks for any feedback.

Re: foot question

Use the shift rod and height for the 150 its going on and you are good to go. Grease the splines good because you will not have an O ring on the 94 shaft.<br /><br />Good luck!

Re: foot question

thanks for the info dhadley but what do you mean height? and did you say i need to take the shift rod off my 150 and put it on the 200 to work?

Re: foot question

Yes. Use the shift rod from your crossflow because the looper rod is different. <br /><br />Your service manual will give you the correct height adjustment for the shift rod in neutral. This is VERY VERY critical if the gears are expected to last.<br /><br />Good luck!
