    I bent the shift shaft intermediate on my 1989 mercruiser alpha one drive while putting the outdrive back on. :(

    I found a new part but I am afraid I will need to tear into the outdrive to replace.

    Anyone have any experience with this ?

    Is it difficuilt to replace this intermediate shaft?

    It's made from brass :mad:

    It just pulls off. Make sure it aligns in the same spline as before.
