1956 30hp Johnson-lower unit gear case. There are ears or tabs (2) on the thrust washer in the gear case. Do they need to be in any certain position when I put it back together and what are they for? THANKS for ANY HELP
Are you referring to the cradle for the clutch dog? The 2 slots face downward and the shift yoke goes into them, then the phillips screw goes into the cradle to hold it in place.
Look at the bottom of the lower unit 50,51,52, this isn't for your motor but similar I imagine.
BK-no the thrust washer is between the reverse gear and prop. Chinewalker may be right I do remember slots or cavities on upper and lower halves of the gear case. I'll see if they line up. THANKS
