OPC Lower Units and FE Conversion Kit

[Jeepers]

I set up an O.S XM lower unit on my dads VS1 running a SV27 motor. I just made a plate and some spacers to mount it. I bored into the lower unit to mount a standard octura coupler and just cut off the short piece of square end on the flex cable. works great! it was a budget build we got the VS1 and the entire XM unit motor and all for 100 bucks!

Here are a couple pics of my OS lowers converted with the plate. The only mod to the lower unit was re tapping the 4-40 holes to 6-32 to accept a more stout screw. The coupler is a square end float style coupler available from fullers fast or hyperformance products for $15.00. Just call, or email them about just that coupler, and not the full kits and they will sell you one:

What haul is this Mike?

I have an O. S. leg with the Hyperformance adapter and I have one of the composite adapters as well.
The metal adapter is thicker than the composite one and I had it machined down a bit for more bite on the flex with the coupler. We had some trouble with flex cables slipping until we did. No trouble with the composite one so far.
