I recentley purchaced a boat that had a 2005 johnson 50 on it. It's a 2007 boat/trailer with the johnson on it. I paid 1200 for it, the only problem is it needs a new lower unit. The one that was on it was aparently so damaged the shop just threw it away. I've been looking for a used/new/rebuilt lower unit but everything I can find cost more than I paid for the whole setup. If anyone is selling a lower unit for cheaper or knows where I may find one I could use the help. Thank you
