Hey guys,
So I purchased a 87 24ft Bayliner Trophy. The lower unit was messed up so I found once from someone on Craigslist and he agreed to help me do the actual swap of the OMC outdrive. Well I paid him and he went on his way. Later that night I noted that the shaft would wobble a little the engine was idling. Yesterday I got out of the water at the boat ramp and sure enough. The lower drive unit main propeller shaft was bent. I have my old lower unit and the shaft seems to twist perfect. Should I attempt rebuilding it and or swapping the lower main prop shaft?
Thanks,
Joe
