    Question about installing new clutch/gear set in 1999 Bravo 3

    Changing from old gear set to new gear set might need to look at Manual 28 and not 11. Replacing clutch gear sets by manual 28 or using Bul 2001-17 the your now using manual 28 as I read it Assemble drive gears and check preload as specified in 28, same goes for clutch
