Attempting to pull lower unit. 1959 Johnson Super Seahorse 35HP. I have bolts out from connection to middle section. I have uncoupling shift linkage thru service access port. She ain't budging. Have I missed a step? I thought shaft should slide out of powerhead.

Did you remove the big bolt at the rear? You can't even see it until you remove the rear cover from the midsection (whole bunch of screws).

I did not! Lol..... that would account for it not budging. So entire cover and I assume to do that, I will remove steer horns as well.
