Fortunately the retainin screws are all fine so no need touse knock offs. Just trying to figure out how to pull the bearing housing out right now.
Dan explained to use a slide hammer with some sort of hook attachment to grab the spline(s) of the bearing. But Im having trouble figuring out how this would work.
I mean, there are two different threads in those 3 orifices; a fine thread from the retaining screws and course ones in the bearing housing itself (5/8th thread) that are larger in diameter to accommodate those narrower screws.
Whats holding the bearing in? Can I just use the OMC puller with three pieces of threaded rod as usual?
From the parts diagram, those 2 snap rings – are they just in a couple of recessesin the gearcase housing? Then the reverse gear is behind that plate…
