    Thanks for the speedy response.

    In order to move the spring band up and expose the pin, I have to drop the driveshaft down into the gearcase, correct ?

    The driveshaft won’t go down. I’ve tapped on it (no bearings to break), but it won’t move.

    And does removing the pinion gear mean I’ll be able to drop the L/U ?
