Wondering if the upper bushing seal housing is original…I know the upper bushing changed in later years to accomodate a seal with a different OD. Your new upper bushing/seal housing should include a new seal already pressed into the housing…Yes, very expensive.
Please listen to Frank’s advice on your other thread….You may be spending alot of money on a gearcase that is no good… Post more pictures and/or ask questions. The lower cast in driveshaft bushing oftentimes fails on these units due to lack of lube/water, this bushing is not replaceable. The driveshaft usually get worn in this area also. Like Frank says, new parts/gears will be quickly worn/destroyed if these areas are badly worn/damaged…
