Has anyone had one rebuilt and then got more than a few years out of it? Somehow, within 20 hours of our last annual maintenance, we had zero lower unit oil, and 2 drops of salt water in it. Needless to say, our TRP lower unit is now rusted all to hell on the inside.
Has anyone had any success with having one rebuilt? This is on an older hull, so we will probably just get a reman single prop lower to put back on it until Spring, and sell the boat. It's a 98 150 Vmax, that has been one helluva motor, but we have to let it go eventually? Maybe Gunny knows?
ETA...we are probably going to sell this hull after the new lower unit. We were thinking of a newer sled in 2022 or 2023 anyway, but man....this is a horrible time to be buying.
