I’ll assume that you’re talking about removing the outer race for the tapered roller bearing that is a slip fit on the propshaft.

I do not believe my unit has a tapered roller bearing with a separate race.
I believe the bearing I’m talking about is photo #202 above, that inserts into
the gear housing cover, photo #213.
All three bearings in my lower unit appear to be actual “ball” bearings.
The bearing housing has the “blackest”, messiest grease I’ve ever seen.
Seems like it’s full of carbon, so I’d like to get the bearing out to better
clean it, and the passages in the housing. The bearing seems okay, so
it’s not vital that I have to remove it.
Thanks for the help!

Prepare to be boarded!
