Need an 08 Mirage Drive
Anyone out there have an 08 (Twist type) mirage drive for a Revolution? I have a chance to buy the kayak but no drive. Let me know please. Thanks, Matt

If I'm not mistaken the drives are interchangeable. The only difference is the locking mechanism on the hull.

So ANY drive will work, the only difference is the lock? Does the locking mechanism come with the drive assembly? Thanks for any info on this. Matt

The locking mechanism comes with/attached to the kayak.

Any drive will work, but the new ones designed for the click and go system will not work with the old twist cams unless modified. Change out the metal pin that goes through the mirage drive, (the pin that rests in the molded grooves of the kayak). Its a very simple fix, just buy the pin you need from Fastlane and used a rubber mallet to push out the old pin, insert the new one, and pound it through with the hammer until it sticks out evenly on either side of the drive.
