I've got the older style lower unit of a prodrive. a 2007 I believe. Anyway I noticed the last 2 years I've gotten water in the lower unit. I probably need to replace the seal again, but I just did that 2 years ago and I probably onluy put 15 -20 hours on in that time frame. I always make sure to clean behind the prop after hunting.

Anyway, I was wondering what is would cost to replace the lower unit. What does a new lower unit cost? Can I get any credit for mine?

Or is it better to trade mine in for a new motor all together. I only have 70 hrs total on the motor. It runs great, and I've thought about putting on some mods. But I also hear they have done some improvements on th new vangaurds. Looking for some cost & options.

Thanks,

new style L/U with trade in is $575

That's not bad at all. What about the new motors. Are they worth to trade up with only 70hrs on my current motor. Mine runs great, but thought if I had to put money into a lower unit then I might as well look at a whole new motor. Although 575 isn't that much cost to upgrade in my book.
