Why are you replacing??? If jumpimg out of gear will need gear replacement also.

Proof that these gearcases are not considered robust / strong.------Fairly common for those to break.-----Surely there must be other damage here.----Bearings full of metal bits ?

You need a " special " tool.----Suggested in the manual I have.-----7.1 mm diameter.-----75 mm long----and a 20 degree angle ground on one end to go about 1.5 cm up the side..----So step # 1 is to make the tool.

Sorry----I have a bunch of those lower units apart and some that need to come apart.------Easy to work on.-----My camera work is not very good.

I believe you should take the propshaft / shift plunger apart.------In my humble opinion you could then see what you need to make.---Sorry.-----I have a few of these with clutch dogs that need to come off.-----Not hard to make this tool !!
