Page Views: 3858 Date Added: 04/11/2010 Last Updated: 01/28/2012 Description: Attention: All owners of Mercury Racing #3, #3A, #4, and #5 SSM drives. As you may well know, Mercury has decided to no longer make available any gears, shafts etc. for these drives. GK Systems Inc. has obtained permission, from Mercury Marine, to use the original blueprints and OEM manufacturers of these pieces and now has available new, near net forged straight cut splined 1.31:1 upper gear sets and LH and RH lower gears. Two different sets are now in stock. 1 set will service the #3A and #5 drives. It is exactly the same set as the one that was discontinued by Mercury #43-818823A1. The other set, which was NEVER available from Mercury will have a near net forged straight cut splined gear and a "shaft" that will work in #3 and #4 drives. Polygoning for #4's is available and will be extra. Pricing on these sets was $2968.57 (retail) when they were available through Mercury. Dealer and OEM pricing is available. Call. Think ahead: Keep your drives. You DON'T have to switch to another drive. Other ratios may become available if demand exists. GK now, has available, the 1.31:1 ratio upper gear sets and the lower gear sets in a 1.125:1 ratio. PLEASE NOTE: These gear sets are made in the USA by the same company that made them for Mercury Racing using the Mercury blueprints. They are NOT made overseas! Also GK has new propshafts for LH and RH #3A and #5 drives and can supply new "big-shaft" propshafts for #4 and #3 drives. 25 sets of lower LH and RH 1.125 ratio gears are now in stock. Also upper and lower housings are in the works as well as spur gears and both verticle shafts. Put together your own #5 drive. Please pass the word on to anyone that has a boat with these drives. New note: Read "Teague on Tech" in the Jan/Feb 2011 issue of Powerboat for any further information on these gears and other pieces being offered.
