Everywhere I check only has props for DT65s back to 1985 or so. Does anyone know where I can find one for a 1981? What is the difference? My prop has some big chips in it. Thanks for any help.

It is probably cheaper to just get your prop repaired ..... but I believe that power tech maked the prop you are looking for, check on www.propline.com ...

deejaycee,

Thanks for the input. I tried www.propline.com but they don't offer props for a 1981 Suzuki DT65 (65 HP) either. Does anyone know what the difference is between a 1981 DT65 prop and a 1985 or newer DT65 prop? Thanks in advance for any input.

on the website propline .... under the brand powertech, there is a prop for 65hp all years, otherwise check the exact numbers on your prop and match it to all the suzuki props on that website for 65hp ....

Yes, but 2 different gearcases...for the 65..3.5" and 4.25"
If it is a "true" DT series, it should be 4.25" gearcase..just measure accross, you'll know in a hurry, but powertech has props for both, as mentioned above.
