Flywheel Puller with lifting eye and crank shaft protector for Mercury, Mariner, Force, Honda and some Yamahas outboard motors with 1 1/2"-16 threads. It is made professionally in the USA on state of the art CNC equipment with 100 % quality inspection.

This model has heavy duty, 5/8 - 18 precision Grade 8 fine threads on the pusher bolt and the lifting ring. A higher quality unit than the competition.


I'm in need of one too and this site claims to have one for $27...and they include the dimensions. I can't promise these are correct for a '70 but I may measure to double check.

I have a 1971 85hp that I need to remove to rebuild my transom so I will be ordering this. I can let you know if the dimensons are correct if I get it:)
