JR marine or Hill Marine Swivel shaft?? Difference?
I need to replace my upper swivel shaft on my 98 Bravo 1because its leaks and is rusty....the factory merc isn't stainless so i see that JR marine make one and also Hill Marine makes one....which one should i get any difference in quality, or are they both made from same place?? I run salt so dont want to do aagin. jr marin is 172.00 and hill is 152.00 so about 20 bucks, dont really care about the price difference just want the better one.

Hi folks,
is jr marine out of business ?
Their website jrmarine.com is down.
Have the same issue as ballon78, swivel shaft on my 92 Alpha 1 Gen. 2 leaks....
Any recommendations on how the replace the seal/shaft would be appreciated, however I think I wouldnt like to drill the 2 access holes as Mercruiser suggested.
take care, Tom
