3. Check that the coupling center lines align by
butting the propeller shaft coupling against
the transmission coupling (Figure 11-25). The
shoulder on the propeller shaft coupling face
should engage the recess on the transmission
coupling face, with no resistance.

IMPORTANT: O󰀨set misalignment conditions must be
corrected prior to checking for angular misalignment.
NOTICE: Some propeller shaft couplings may not have
a shoulder on the mating surface. On these installations,
use a straight edge to check the centerline alignment
(Figure 11-26).

4. If the coupler center lines are not aligned, adjust
the mounts as follows:
• UP or DOWN OFFSET ADJUSTMENT:
Loosen the locking nut. Turn the adjusting
nut or the adjusting bolt in the direction
required to raise or lower the engine. After
the adjustment is complete, tighten the
locking nut.
IMPORTANT: For O󰀨set Alignment, both front mounts
(or rear mounts) must be turned equally or angular
misalignment will occur.
