Re: Engine Alignment Question, with a driveshaft

Ayuh,..........

I just got home from the shop,.....
Bob,+ I have been doing somemore of the rough in on the center motor,.....

The Up-date is,............ Good News..................

The center motor hanging in it's Off-Shore mounts is out of square by .031",......
Which we'll Adjust when doing the final mounting........
And,......
The Driveshaft Angle came in at 2.1?..........
With the suggested range of 1? to 3?,........ We think we'll just leave that alone...... ;)

Ayuh,....... I just Love it when a Plan comes together............

Sounds like you're about there. I think I would get square a little closer than.031 before I bolted it down, if that is a side to side reading.

Ayuh,......
That's in the X dimension, from the mounting bolts of the transom assembley to the outside corners of the PTO assembley hung off the motor,......
42" from Flange to Flange.......
We'll get it down to a .00X number before we snug it up.........
