So I finally pulled the gearcase down. Boy, it is a PIA to get at the upper shift shaft screw located beneath the carbs. I had to remove the starter and VRO to gain access, which means I pulled the airbox off too!
Anyway, the driveshaft was broken in half but the gearbox is still seized up. It shifts freely, but I can’t turn the driveshaft nub even with a vice grip.. Looks as if I’ll be doing a full teardown on my very first 50hp gearbox in the next day or two….
