Bravo gimbal housing question
The fitting that passes through the transom and has a hex head made of plastic that sits in the gimbal housing to feed oil from the resevoir to the drive broke on me. The nipple that the line attaches to actually snapped off when we were working on the boat. Can that be changed without removing the drive?? Is it a major pain in the ass?? I think that the schematic shows a circlip of some sort on the inside of the boat that you would pull off in order to get the fitting out but I am not sure. Gimme some ideas here......

you can try,but in reality youll need to pull the drive and helmet and take the bellows loose at the transom assy to get the new one back in straight,the bellows is going to be in the way,you could try to push the bellows out of the way,but I've never attempted without dismantilling it properly!
