I guess you could lift it way up and pull the shift cable through the transom, but I think you would risk bending it.

Either way, would only take about 2 minutes to remove the hinge pins assuming they aren't corroded.

You can sneak the cable out without pulling the bell housing.(Yes, Seaford is correct....it's called a bell housing) You just lift it up a little and use a line wrench on the nut.

Man - that sounds unpleasant relative to just taking the hinge pins out, but where there's a will I guess there's a way...
