I was sliding the lower unit out to grease and do my winter checks, when it suddenly stopped. It slid out maybe and inch or two then stopped. Is there a pin or something that is preventing it from sliding out? I never had this problem before. Any help would be great.

Assuming you are talking about removing the whole drive and not just the lower unit from the outdrive. Did you put the shifter in forward before you started? If not, there is your mistake.
