yes I have found the biggest mistake is not sizing the job up properly before starting it of if a local merc guy has one I will pick it up

also need to have the Merc manuals they are prob a little better then the clymer which did not have this disassembly procedure in it.need to finish getting them off tommorow to send out for rebuild

drives are already at my merc guy for going through

only have about a month for splashing so got to start to hurry

Buy some HD Gibles and some new XR Drives Klaw. While you're at it through in a couple of 600's and you'll be in great shape for summer!!

See you soon!
