I am not sure but the hub kit should fit perfect, the slightest play and you have vibration. So personally I would go for a new hub kit.

I used this kit for a 1978 mercruiser outdrive, not sure if it was Alpha one or not. Just know it worked for me. It was installed in a unit hooked to an inline 4 cyl, The big 227 motor. in a howard manufactured boat. Hope this helps.

You have to use the hubs that come with the kit. The bearings are bigger and the stub shaft itself is also larger so they're a lot stronger than stock, and the hubs are really strong too. The front and rear half shaft assemblys are also the exact same with the Tekno kits so you parts interchangeability which is nice. I've been running mine for about 4 months in Afghanistan with the castle SCT setup on 3S with 6in. tall tires and the Tekno 17mm hub conversion and have only broke one front half shaft because I was running a rear locker on the street. If you are still running the stock size tires even on 3S, I don't see you ever breaking any half shaft parts. These are tough. You have to use the hubs that come with the kit.

You will need a radius guide. Hardwood has it's own issues with quarter inch drive, as you would suspect. Not undoable.

This kit will fit all Alpha One Generation One outdrives. Yours should have that drive unless it was updated. (Gen one will have the trim cylinders connected by bolts, gen 2 has metal clips) Individual parts are hard to find. When removing the lower unit it's best to replace every part that this kit has. No key in the kit. Follow this link to it: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009ZPVB72/ref=redir_mdp_mobile

That should work out fine. Just be sure to get the hub with the coaster (back pedal) brake. I assume that you are getting a complete wheel but if you are building a wheel you'll need new spokes since the hub diameter of the 8 speed is much larger than the 3 speed.

It's been awhile since I put my together... I currently have one SSD as the OS Drive, one 3.5 data drive and if I remember correctly it's using up all the space on that mount. There is a 5.25 bay which I'm using for a Blu-Ray drive, but I'd imagine you could get something like a 3.5 to 5.25 adapter and get your 3rd drive in there that way. Page 3 in the manual (6 on the PDF) will give you a better idea of how the insides are laid out: http://www.silverstonetek.com.tw/downloads/Manual/case/Multi-GD05-Manual.pdf

Afternoon Peggy, the kit comes with two drive adapters: an SDS/SDS+ and a hex shaft that is just shy of 11mm across flats. You MUST make sure you use the bits in drill mode only, i.e. turn off hammer mode. Otherwise you risk cracking the bits. You will also find a long 1/4" carbide bit useful so you can bore thick walls from both sides by drilling a 1/4 hole completely through the wall, then core drilling from both ends.Please wear good dust protection. Take care, Mike

u can reuse the three hub bolts and axle nut, make sure to torque the axle nut when u reassemble

The attachment head should be square inside and it fits to the drive handles square 3/8 drive head. Looks like you have a defective or used part.

No.The tools are the same size.Only the square drive is larger in 3/8.I have the 1/4 I like it.Remember it is a 12volt power rachet not an impact wrench,you may have to break the fastner loose or tighten final torque by hand.If you have lots of 3/8 drive stuff buy the 3/8, otherwise I say buy the 1/4 and update your sockets and extensions.The 12volt battery keeps the tool size managable. I bought mine to work on 6 and 6.4 Ford Diesels,I am glad I did.

I have Merc. Alpha 1 outdrive. They are made to fit perfectly on the one I have. I don't need to cut or modify anything. Love it.

i would say get the shorter one like the 16mm. i think they come in 9 12 16 and 24. The idea here is that the driver has to go through the entire insert so that it will expand and embbed properly. if you already bought the kit, you can refer to the instruction set for better clarity and you can always buy additional inserts without buying the entire kit. Hope this helps goodluck.

The short answer is no, iPilot will not work with the older non V2 Power Drives. If you search around the internet some guys have converted their V1's into V2's which involves some rewiring but then will it work with the iPilot. I would suggest looking into the Minn Kota Copilot or upgrading the motor all together.

Get the ones with abs regardless of thread pitch. That way, even if you don't have front abs, you have a port you can stuff grease into. It really helps that axle needle bearing from wearing out. If the thread pitch is different, knock out your old studs and put them into the new hub. That's what I did and it took less than ten minutes. Plus I think the fine thread hubs were cheaper for some reason. Best of luck!

Yes you can. They sell a separate Power Pack containing Himaxx motor, Castle Creations Thunderbird 36 ESC, and a 13 x 4E APC prop. It is expensive but good. Others are available for less. Or you can just buy what you need from any dealer.

Yes, I put in on a 94 merc 3.0 with Alpha 1 outdrive. The skeg was broke half broke off and it fit great.
