2 part question here? 2006 Johnson 15HP

[adominique0313]

Hello again,
I have recently purchased a 2006 Johnson 15HP (J15RSDR)
Q 1. Can I remove the tiller and shifter and purchase control cables?
Q 2. Can I purchase a electric starter, Wire harness and ignition switch?

Thanks for any help.

Yes, but it would probably be rather pricy to buy the parts, might not be worth it.

Oh,, Could you tell me where to start looking for these parts?
thanks

EBay is a good bet. There is a list of salvage yards on the top of this sectionhttp://forums.iboats.com/forum/engine-repair-and-maintenance/johnson-evinrude-outboards/449716-salvage-yards-by-wilde1?t=438822

Honestly you'd be better off buying a blown 15hp and using the parts. Even selling your motor and getting a remote steer would be an option. Remember you'll need a steering setup also. As ondavr said, this will be one pricy endeavor.

That all said, it is very possible to "buy" all this stuff, but you wouldn't catch me doing it that way.
