Me neither, but I think I just threw my old one out a few weeks ago so I won't be any help.

It was real easy, I paid the marina to do it. They did it when I had the lower rebuilt. Pretty sure they used a merc part #865437a02 according to my receipt. Was extremely hard to shift into reverse most of the time before it was changed.

I am in a wedding in upstate NY so I can't make it. However, my Dad may be running my boat. I will ask him what his plan is tomorrow.

My bad, that was the lower shorter cable they changed. What lake is the run? That date is sounding familar though may have a grad party to attend that weekend. If it still a hard shift maybe sweet new billet shifter may solve it.
