Alright all, I have the mounts replaced, new coupler installed, and I am trying to align the engine/drive. I am getting marks on the right side of the tool, very little if any on the top and the bottom and I can not pull the tool out with two fingers. The stringers and transom are solid, I did check. When trying to align I did give the tool a wack top/bottom and left/right and I didn't notice any movement of the gimbal bearing. We did also try moving the engine side to side with maybe a little change but not enough. Any advice? Should i be able to tell if the gimbal bearing is tilting, it feels silky smooth when I spin it. Thanks again for all the support from the site has been great.
