Drive Shaft Lower Bearing Race Installation
1. Lubricate O.D. of bearing race with 2-4-C Marine Lubricant with Teflon.
2. Install shim(s) and bearing race into housing. If shim(s) were lost or a new gear housing
is being assembled, start with 0.025 in. (0.635 mm) shim(s).
NOTE: Verify shim(s) are not cocked when drawing up race. Once shims and bearing cup
are in place, position gearcase assembly so the driveshaft is vertical. This will aid in prevent-
ing the bearing cup from becoming cocked in the bore.
