As of tonight I am shopping for a used lower unit. My motor is a 1983 johnson 50 hp 2 cyl. I was thinking that a 40-70 hp lower unit from 1979-1989 would work as long as it had the same number of splines on the shaft as my old one. I am just trying to confirm that info. So my question is: what year and hp lower unit will fit a 1983 50 hp 2 cyl.

Re: lower unit ????'s

Another way to get a more definite list is as follows:

Go to the BRP Parts Catalogs http://epc.brp.com/default.aspx?brands=ej&lang=E

At the "Search" window, select "Advanced";

At the "Part Number" field enter "393135 or 393136, depending on which length you have ";

Leave the other fields blank;

Select ?Show where used? next to each search result to list all the motors that your gearcase was used on.
