Thanks for the info...that's exactly what happened to mine and I expect
I'll be in the same neighborhood.
 
Thanks again,
JJ

        JJ,
         
        I think I spent a little over $2000.
         
        That included parts and labor to rebuild the upper gear box (may
have even needed a new case, mine had run completely dry and chewed up
everything), ball gears and seals for the intermediate housing, lube,
and paint to pretty up the outdrive. After getting a quote on some of
the parts, I finally just sent him the gear box and he quoted what was
needed. I figured he knew a lot more than I did.
         
        If you send an email to stone@... with what you
need, he gets back pretty quickly with what's available and prices. At
least he has in the past, I haven't had to contact him in the last three
years or so.
         
        Good Luck,
         
        Don

        Don-
        Thanks for the advice...if you don't mind me asking...what
should I expect to pay for an operation like this?
         
        Thanks
        JJ

                I've had real good luck dealing with
www.outboard-parts.com
                 
                I have a '68 Playmate, so it's a little different, but
when I needed my upper gearbox rebuilt a couple years ago, he did great.
He will either sell the parts, or do the work. I sent him my gearbox and
he had it back in very short order. He also had new and used ball gears
in stock. I have also called with a couple questions and they were more
than willing to offer advice.
                 
                Come to think of I also was able to get carb parts for a
rebuild from them.
                 
                Hope this helps.
                 
                Don Fintak

                Anyone know of a reliable source for parts for the same
year that Ryan just inquired about? I've also got a 68 Sportsman
155...the upper gear case is shot. I'd either like it fixed, or I may
attempt to fix it myself with a spare week and some guidance.
                 
                Thanks
                JJ Ford
