I have replaced the driveshaft twice and I am starting to wonder if the problem might be in the crank. When I bought the boat the bolts that held the lower unit to the motor were stripped and very loose. I found this out after a half of season of running it. After I fixed that issue I failed to lube the threads or put a new seal in. This time I shimmed the drive shaft and have some real thick synthetic lube but I hate to ruin another shaft. Is it reasonable to think that I may have ruined the splines in the crank? Each time the drive shaft went out I was pretty surprised that it did because of the situation. They usually last about two years of moderate use. Any thoughts will be appreciated.
