I was just curious where some other members look when it comes to finding new, used, or new old stock OMC parts? Besides iboats and ebay, where do you like to go to find parts. I have a local salvage yard where every once in a while there is a motor someone brings in and it is pretty much free for the taking if I get there in time, that is one of my favorites! I also know a local marina with a "bone pile" out back, which has been helpful in the past, but recently he has been pretty high on price. I have also been known to cruise around on craigslist looking for cheap outboards. Right now though, I am looking for a clutch dog part number 317667, which is rather pricy, but I cant find a good deal anywhere on one.

Hi jw. In addition to here in the forums, ebay.com, amazon.com, marineengine.com and aomci.org are all great spots for new and used parts. I recently had a bad clutch dog myself and almost had a heart attack when I saw the prices too. I placed a WTB ad on aomci.org got a whole new set of gears, clutch dog, and prop shaft for the price of the dog alone. Good luck in your hunt.....

With an electric shift gearcase you are going to struggle to find anything cheap for it new.....not sure what other prices youve had but that part is around $120 over at boats dot net.

Good info above but my favorite is a bone pile at a marine engine repair shop. Rick.
