My brother just paid $1500 to have his lower unit rebuilt on his 225 Mercury with all new seals and gears. They also did a waterpump at the same time. I thought the price was high.

there are plenty of good used 25" lowers out there( the 20's are getting hard to get). new mercury complete lower will run you $4500, Mercury Reman around $2700. I've seen used ones as low as $500, just keep looking around
