Do you happen to know what length these are? Getting hold of these OEM is tough in Sweden but Ive sources imperial marine grade bolts locally that have a A4 Stainless Steel rating which I think would suffice?
Thanks. I used to do it that way but find eventually the nipple parts snap off.
Ive ordered one which im hoping could be a fit, otherwise ita back to making a custom one again.
I had no idea that putting the boat in and out of gear with engine off would do this kind of damage. I have to admit i've done that a lot because I had a recent carb issue and was testing the hell out of it. I guess lesson learned and I should only do that with muffs on and engine running when...
The hardest part I find about removing my lower unit gearcase on my Johnson 55hp (1979) is removing those damn snaprings.

i found this one on ebay looks visually identical but part number is 322938...
Turns out the shifter lever (part 320120) was totally broken inside there. Will try get hold of a new one. Anyone happen to have one in US they can sell me/post to Sweden.
Any ideas why this happens?
