[PSUBS-MAILIST] Minn Kota lower unit material

[Cliff Redus via Personal_Submersibles]

I have a number of Minn Kota 101 lower units, MK part number 2886289.
While I don't have anthing from MK on materials, I tend to agree with Hank.

1) Main body that has the permanent magnets attached is some kind of steel.
2) Brushed end assembly that holds the shaft bushing and lip seals is cast
aluminum (probably 6061-T6)
3) Bow end of lower unit that holds a bearing is also cast aluminum
(probably 6061-T6)
