2-5/8 nut in 0n either side ofn the torque tube, 1-5/9 nut underneath ther caviration plate and you will have to remove the trim tab, a 5/16 allen wrench thur the hole in the top of the housing above it as there is 1 more 9/16 nut hidden under it---Bob

You need a manual. Iboats sells them. Doing what you need to do once you get it off is going to be a bunch easier with the book
