Driveshaft removal on a 9.8 "110" Mercury, please help!

[zz_denis]

I need to remove the driveshaft out of the gearcase on a 1970's 9.8 hp Mercury "110"
I removed the impeller housing, and can see the drivesaft bearing. I dont see any screws/bolts that could be removed. Is there a trick to taking the thing out?

Thanks!

No tricks... just more work..

You need to :

• Remove bearing carrier nut
• Remove bearing carrier
• Pull out propeller shaft ( with reverse gear )
• Loosen the pinion nut ( on the end of the driveshaft, INSIDE LU )
• Remove pinion gear
• Pull out driveshaft.

Remove the propshaft carrier, reverse gear, then the pinion retaining bolt and pull the driveshaft out
