Thanks guys.

I have the appropriate tools… it’s just that they’re 100 miles away in another country. I already have too many tools, so I either have to borrow or make do without until Mr. Trudeau allows me to travel .

I have a new shift-shaft bushing and have already set up a threaded rod and steel plate to try to the old one out.I was hoping that there was some other magic the crowd has tried.

This is the same motor with the broken flywheel hub that was epoxied to the crankshaft taper…. uphill all the way.

I am using a small punch with a 1/16 end and dremel at the very top of the propshaft seal. I figure if I do (god forbid) bite too far into the seal casing and hit the carrier wall it won’t be catastrophic because the new seal is about 1/2 the height of the old.
