Help Need Stern Brackets 85hp

[2000xpsd]

My first post...I've made it pretty far with this motor by just searching on this site and i can usually find the answer, great site...but I've finally come to a dead end with my newest problem...
I need both stern brackets
F685532-1
F685032-1

Motor is an 85hp #858F9G...89 i believe

I've been checking ebay and have an email into tcoutboard.com but nothing so far...
I can weld aluminum but they are pretty flaky...i would rather machine new ones before welding mine. But first I thought i check to see if there are any out there and save myself some work...anyone have any?

I have old style clamp-on type -- which I consider to be better than bolt through style. Everything bolts up to them the same. Only difference is in clamps to hold them to transom. If you are interested, pm me with your email address and I will forward photos. Then we can talk.

I have a 1989 85 horse that I will be parting out. The brackets are in great shape and nice and free. PM or email if interested.

Re: Help Need Stern Brackets 85hp

from what i can tell you can't because they bolt thru the motor. I'm just replacing one side at a time so i don't have to remove the motor.
