Hey guys,
I got a new Shift Shaft Bushing for the lower unit but neglected to get the removal tool.
Doh! :facepalm:
No problemo, I discovered that a carefully placed and controlled Disc Brake Piston tool (from the local auto parts store) worked just as well! Note that this is a freshwater outdrive so no major corrosion issues to deal with.
