 Lower Unit Bearings
Have any of y'all tried using different bearings from what GT puts in the straight tube assy? Can the existing bearings/seals be matched at a auto parts store?

 Re: Lower Unit Bearings
I'm sure you could. They should have numbers on them.

 Re: Lower Unit Bearings
x2. You can find those seals and bearings by looking at the numbers stamped on them. Amazon was where I ended up ordering my stuff, for my old dixie.

 Re: Lower Unit Bearings
Did you sell the Dixie? Or do you still have it?

 Re: Lower Unit Bearings
I have a post on here somewhere that I posted all the numbers to bearings and seals of the gt lower unit. Only ones I couldn't find are the 2 prop seals.

 Re: Lower Unit Bearings
I think after all that extra engineering you did, it doesn't even qualify as a dixie. It's a mudixie motor.
