Can your source rebuild one of your BP 1200 lower units? I would like to have an assembly available for the yard to swap with my broken unit.

Re: Volvo QS BP1200 bow thruster replacement
The shaft is bent on it, and so I need the shaft and any seals and gaskets that are bad, or the whole lower unit as the upper unit is fine. Do you know anyone that might have this lower unit, or some parts by chance?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Re: Volvo QS BP1200 bow thruster replacement
I have a BP1200 bow thruster. Found water in the oil reservoir. The gear case turns freely.
When the boat was pulled in July and zinc replace, the mechanic said the screw holding the zinc would not tighten all the way. After finding water, I looked at the parts diagram and see the zinc screws into a oil plug. Could it be the oil plug is lose or broken. I called my local Volvo dealer to order a new oil plug kit and was told they are no longer available. Can anyone provide me a source or idea?
