Will a 1989 lower unit fit a 1984 outboard. Both are Mariner 115 HP

[C1Todd]

Hello, thanks in advance for any answers. I have a 1989 outboard that bit the dust last year when an oil line busted going down the lake. I'm looking at a 1984 (with low hours) outboard that only needs a lower unit. Both are Mariner 115 hp. Would my good lower unit from the 89 fit the good 84 motor? If so, how much should the labor be to put these two together. Thanks again...

If they're both inline 6's, then yes. It's a simple swap. Do the water pump at the same time. About an hour. If the 89 is one of the first inline-4 115s, then they are very different.

HI. I was wondering if the Mariner lower unit was off of a 4 cylinder or a six cylinder?
And if you would be interested in selling the lower unit?
