04 Johnson 175hp lower unit swap which year model donors?
2004 Johnson 175HP model J175PLSRB
I’d like to change my orginal 20” shaft to a 25” actuely I like a 30” not sure if that’s possible.
What year model engines can be used for a 20” to 25” shaft? The fitch engines appear to be the same.
I do know the are shaft extension kits but there kindof pricy, hopping to find a used engine w/ blow power head & good hydraulics.
I've read that the 150hp is the same lower unit. I believe this engine was also made in 200 &225HP which mite be the same lower unit.
the image I post pictured left I believe is a fitch engine and it appears the same.
Objective is to raise the engine bracket up above the waterline.
Thanks for advice.
