Bravo XY, go thru or keep going?
#1
My Bravo XY outdrive now has 335 hrs on it. Do I have the drive gone thru or just change the lube and keep going?
I change the drive oil aprox. every 25 hrs or less. I do not run hard except every once and a while. I take off easy most of the times. There is very little fillings if any on the magnets of the drain plugs every time the oil is changed. I pulled the top cap and looked at the gears, from what I can see they look great.
I think I am going to have the drive gone thru and then I remember reading about all of the drives that have been gone thru and torn up shortly after they have been rebuilt.
If I have it gone thru who does the best in the Houston / Austin area?

Well I think you have an XZ ???? And yes I would have it gone thru, the cost of finding out if a bearing is failing will be alot cheaper now than when something does go wrong and really hurts the drive. Tear down and put back together is just piece of mind.
Good luck
