Which Suzuki engines use the SE528 counter-rotation lower unit?
+
−
The Suzuki SE528 lower unit is designed for select counter-rotation Suzuki DF200, DF225, and DF250 V6 outboards. Confirmed applications include select Suzuki DF200 counter-rotation applications from 2004–2014 and compatible DF225 and DF250 counter-rotation applications from 2004 onward. Always verify the complete engine model, model year, shaft configuration, and serial number before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Is the Suzuki SE528 a left-hand counter-rotation gearcase?
+
−
Yes. The Suzuki SE528 counter-rotation gearcase is a left-hand lower unit designed for compatible ZX and ZXX counter-rotation applications. It should only be used where the engine application specifically requires a counter-rotation replacement gearcase. Before ordering, verify your engine model, serial number, shaft configuration, and rotation requirement to ensure the SE528 is the correct replacement.
Does the Suzuki SE528 fit DF200, DF225, and DF250 outboards?
+
−
The Suzuki SE528 counter-rotation lower unit fits select DF200, DF225, and DF250 V6 counter-rotation applications, but it is not universal across every engine with these horsepower ratings. The DF200 counter-rotation application is limited to select 2004–2014 models, while confirmed DF225 and DF250 counter-rotation applications extend beyond that range. Verify the complete model designation, model year, shaft length, and serial number before purchase.
Is the Suzuki SE528 lower unit new or remanufactured?
+
−
The Suzuki SE528 lower unit is a new aftermarket replacement gearcase, not a remanufactured or refurbished OEM lower unit. It is intended as a replacement option for confirmed Suzuki counter-rotation applications requiring the SE528 gearcase. Before ordering, confirm that your engine requires a compatible SE528 configuration by checking the complete model number, serial number, shaft length, and rotation requirement.
Is the Suzuki SE528 available for 25-inch and 30-inch applications?
+
−
Yes. The Suzuki SE528 counter-rotation lower unit is available for confirmed 25-inch (ZX) and 30-inch (ZXX) applications. The correct shaft configuration should be matched to your complete Suzuki engine model rather than selected by horsepower alone. Before ordering, verify the engine model, serial number, shaft length, and required rotation to ensure the selected SE528 configuration matches your application.
Can I use the Suzuki SE528 on a standard-rotation outboard?
+
−
No. The Suzuki SE528 is a counter-rotation lower unit designed specifically for compatible left-hand and counter-rotation applications. It should not be used as a replacement for a standard-rotation gearcase. If your Suzuki outboard requires standard or right-hand rotation, verify the appropriate standard-rotation replacement instead. Always confirm the complete model number, serial number, shaft length, and rotation before ordering.
How do I verify my Suzuki counter-rotation lower unit before ordering?
+
−
Before ordering a Suzuki SE528 lower unit, verify the complete engine model, serial number, model year, counter-rotation requirement, and 25-inch or 30-inch shaft configuration. For twin- or multi-engine installations, also confirm which engine requires the counter-rotating gearcase rather than assuming the SE528 is automatically the correct port-engine lower unit. If you are unsure, provide the engine information to Mariners Warehouse for fitment verification before ordering.
