Post Prodrive lower unit issues
My drain plug on my short transom 27hp gen1 lower unit broke in the water and my bearings locked up. if I have to replace the whole lower unit can any lower unit fit (Gen2, Gen3, Gen4)?

Yes, and make sure to get the Gen 4. Don't go with Gen 3

Are you sure the Bearings are indeed locked up?
I know a few people on here who would get that from you just to bust it open.

took it apart yesterday and it's something under my clutch and above my top gear. outdrive shaft is perfectly fine except minor tooth chips. Would I have to get a different adaptor If I go with the gen4?

if your spline adaptor is bad just change it and move on. easy fix.
