Tash...

How did you crate the lower unit? Just build a wooden box just large enough to fit it and strap it down?

Ps: Trotline1 you have mail.

i had a heavy cylinder that i slipped over drive shaft, then wrapped the whole thing in a garbage bag, put in a heavy card board box using extra cardboard to line the inside, filed with styrofoam, and styrofoam peanut packing. lots of strapping tape.

Tash...Thanks for the info. I was thinking a wooden crate, your recommendation seems to be much easier.

Trot...if your reading this the measurement I mentioned last night......20"

All have a great day!
