I have a 5.7Merc StingRay Bowrider with an Alpha GenII.
I'd like to build a pipe+2x4 stand that i can use to hold the drive when dropping the lower for water pump maintanance.
I'd like to make it suitable for removing the upper+lower in order to maintain the gimble bearing, bellows, UJoints...etc.
QUESTION 1:
What are good touch points on the aluminum outdrive that won't risk breakage ?
