If it is your first time, give yourself a couple of hours. Get a buddy to help you remove and replace the lower-unit. It is really a simple straightforward procedure, it can just be intimidating the first time you drop the LU.

Just be aware of the water tube and the clutch dog as you are re-assembling the unit.​

Ditto what he said.

And do not forget the bolt under the trim tab and don't put any grease on the top of the driveshaft, just the splines

Thanks guys I thought it would be around 2 hours but was not sure will watch the water tube and the clutch dog. I tore apart a old old johnson with electric shift I figure this has to be easier than that !!
