As I was suspecting…..with the engine running it goes into forward gear just barely before the detent…… will not shift into reverse at all
Which way should I adjust the barrel nut or should I adjust the slot?
One thing that may come up and spook me is when I installed the drive the first time when the shift cradle was off I had to sort of force the remote shifter back to neutral which may or may not have messed up my shift cable somehow. I may to to do some adjusting on the cable. I will report...
Yeah…..Alldodge called it earlier in the post….I don’t know if the previous owner had something to do with it or not because it was shifting fine before I removed the drive previous times. Going to do the install today and all should go well.
Update from 20 minutes ago. Took the shift rod seal off found the clip had slid down the rod. Cleaned everything up put clip back into the groove and turned the shift rod back one tooth and now everything lines and locks up CCW in forward gear like it is supposed to. There is no telling how...
My shift shaft appears to have swapped sides. My shift arm in the bellhousing is supposed to turn the shift shaft towards port but my shift shaft wants to turn toward starboard

Thanks for all the info you have provided so far.
Orientation wise when talking CCW and CW which way is which. Is CCW looking from rounded nose of the gear case towards the prop or from prop looking towards the rounded nose of the gear case?

Is there a good video link showing the rotation of the prop shaft and which way the lock up should be.
I watched this video and when i turn my prop like he did thats where mine starts clicking. Whats aggrevating is this isnt the first time I have had the lower unit off. I have removed the...
Mine is working exactly opposite of this diagram. How could that be if I didnt remove the shift rod. Is there a way of the shift rod becoming misaligned if you didnt remove the shift rod. My shift rod has two bolts holding the seal down.
So you thinking the set screw that holds this lever is loose and thus not moving the shift cradle. But my lower unit still only locks in forward gear CW not CCW.
My shift shoe on the the shift rod is pointing forward but the prop only locks CW. When spinning the prop CCW all it does is clicks.
The gray shift lever is still attached to the cable and the set screw with the wire is still holding. I did notice that it is possible for this cradle to rotate while installing the drive. I use a hoist to install my drive so I don’t have to hold the weight while checking to make sure all...
