1 Alpha SS complete and running. No issues, normal wear & tear.

1 Alpha SS in pieces, Upper is good, Vertical shaft is good, Lower has a weldable crack on the torpedo. This unit was rebuilt but the rebuilder didn't pressure test so the cracked lower went unnoticed. Needless to say, the drive didn't live too long after the rebuild.

I have no interest in these units, I am just selling them for a friend. They came off of his Baja. I will try to get some pix up later.

$3000 OBO for everything. You can call me @978-502-5465 with any questions. He wants these to go quick...

if anyone wants to build an ss using an outboard cle gearcase.. you need that upper... and the shifter dog that mates to the shifter rod in the transom assy... those 2 parts alone... are worth a good portion of what he is asking... you will probably not find another empty upper housing in perfect operating condition... they are few and far between...

To answer a few questions on the drives...

They came off of an old Baja 260/270? that was up here on Lake Winnipesaukee. The boat has twin 260 Mercs (350 V8 Chevy) for power. I have no idea if they have ever seen salt, but the drives have normal freshwater corrosion. I have no idea what the gear ratio is or when the complete unit was last serviced/rebuilt. The unit that is apart was rebuilt last summer because the driveshaft broke. The rebuilder did not pressure test it so the crack in the torpedo went unnoticed. It ran out of oil in an hour or so and went kaboom. The upper is fine with no damage, the lower is weldable, no problem. The complete drive has rust on the u-joint because of a leaky bellows.

If the busted one dosen't sell I would be interested in the top half, keep it in mind.
