just curious, they look to have normal wear rings or witness marks on them from props. I have speedy sleeves on mine and it looks similar, perfectly fine routine repair on these. Always interested for a spare or spares as these are sometimes hard to find.

No there are no speedy sleeves on the propshafts, they are in perfect shape, they do have wear rings where the plastic bushing of the prop rides. They are not brand new but as close to it as possible.
They are 1,31:1 straight cut net forged splined uppers and 1.125:1 lowers which calculates to be (1.31x1.125= 1.47325) which is commonly referred to as a 1.5 drive.
They have approximately 20 hours on them. Colabella just finished completely going through them and didn't need to replace any bearing nor gear set. He cleaned up everything and put in new prop shaft seals and drive fluid and pressure checked them. Said they looked perfect. If any gear needed replacing he would have done it as I am his supplier for new Mercury SSM gears.
The skegs have never been welded on and the lowers are beautiful.
I have new "V" (five) decals that are to be included.
