i just found a pair of plug in crash boxes but one has a broken gear. are parts still aval from merc or daytona? i located a pair of these same crash boxes in the drive line style, can i remove the tail sock from the plug in to convert the drive line to a plug in? are the internals and gears interchangable between the 2? thx, rm

OK, so I'm stupid. Been waiting for the chance to ask..

What is a crashbox?

Talk to Brian Jackson at OffshoreOutdrives in Ft. Lauderdale. I think he works on them. www.offshoreoutdrives.com (954) 448-4478.

its a transmission..........it will not shift when the motor is running. You have to turn the motor off and shift and start the motor in gear, ect.

its a direct drive/gear to gear transmissions with no clutches to slip or burn up, no pump or parasitic hp loss either, they are as bullet proof as it gets
