I have a question? My prop shaft is slitly bent. The motor seems to handle fine and there realy isnt any unusal vibrations. Should I be conserened about the lower unit or damageing the bearings? If anyone has sugestions feel free.
Thanks Isaiah

It's hard on the engine to run a bend shaft even worse with a S/S prop, any good machine shop should be able to straighten it if it's not twisted.
