We Pay Cash for Lower Unit Cores
Replaced a damaged gearcase? Don’t toss the old one. Your used lower unit core is worth money to us, and selling it is easy.
Why We Buy Cores
Our factory-trained technicians remanufacture lower units right here in Kansas City. Every remanufactured unit starts with a good used core.
When you sell us yours, it gets a second life on another boater’s rig instead of in a landfill, and you get paid.
What We Buy
We buy lower unit cores for:
- Mercury outboards
- Evinrude and Johnson outboards
- Volvo Penta sterndrives
- OMC Cobra sterndrives
Not sure yours qualifies? Ask us. We’re happy to take a look.
What Your Core Is Worth
The price depends on condition. The better shape your core is in, the better the payout.
Even a damaged core may be worth something, so reach out and we’ll give you an honest estimate.
