How hard is it to take outdrive off chnage fluid and grease. Do you need any special tools? Carpenter by trade pretty good with my hands just never seen it done and would like to do myself this year. Any input would be great . Thanks Mark By the way they are bravo 1's

Mark,

Not too difficult to do. I have done my own for years, but then again I only have two.

Don't forget to disconnect the speedo tube before you pull the drive. It is very helpful to have a drive stand or two.

Tricky part is checking the coupler for wear and alignment. This is critical and needs to be done every year.

Super busy right now, but call me if you have questions.

Chris
