The iboats forum moderators are excited to announce that at this time it appears the iboats forums posting pictures function is working once again. Though we cannot promise for how long, we're hoping for indefinitely.
I'm looking for a lower unit for a 30HP Johnson 1987 outboard. Wanting price and condition information for any that are available. Please email me if you have something or know somewhere to get one.<br /><br />------------------<br />bob
30 hp lower end gears are notorious for failure. They seem underengineered according to our mechanics. We have gone through 2 in 3 months for one of our customers that runs a 16 ft trihull hard. Its too much for the little pinion gear. Recommend a rebuild. Parts are cheaper at Pro Marine in Florida. A gear set is probably what you need. Keep it in mind- you haven't got a robust rear end.
If still in need of lowerunit let me know, i think i have one rebuilt in the shed, if not i can fnd you one or rebuild yours, i also have all the parts you would need, contact Frankie at 918-786-8180<br />or E-Mail fmrs@greencis.net<br />Thanks and Good Luck
