ok, today i dropped the lower unit out of my 1982 merc 50hp to change the impeller due to no tell-tale water. this is my first attempt at doing this. everything came out fine, but when i looked up into the housing where the drive shaft goes in, i noticed 2 splined gaskets/seals 1 large, 1 small, laying there. i guess they got pulled off when i was dropping the LU. the big one looks in good shape, but the smaller of the 2 is kinda chewed up at one end. i figured i would go ahead and replace them while i have it apart, but the exploded parts illustration in my clymer manual, doesnt show the seals listed. however, a couple of pages over when it talks about installing the LU it mentions putting 2 splined seals on the drive shaft. i have searched the parts section of this site, and cant find any splined seals. have they been discontiued and replaced with a different seal? if so what are the names/part number, and can i buy them individually or do i have to order the whole lower unit seal kit? also, does the impeller repair kit, that does not include the top housing, contain the rubber water outlet tube seal? i cant tell from the pic. any other tips in reinstalling the LU, right now the motor is in forward gear. should i leave it in forward, or put in neutral when reinstalling? i know this is a long post with a lot of questions, thanks in advance for any help.
