Was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.
I've got a '99 Four Winns H240 with the Volvo 5.7 GSi and the DP-SM (SX series) outdrive. Towards the end of last season we were getting an increasingly loud growling (grinding?) noise out of the outdrive when put into gear, either forward or reverse.
I had changed the u-joints earlier in the year with no problems and since they are turning whenever the engine is running that steers me away from them. I've got a Clymer shop manual for the stern drive and feel pretty comfortable tearing into it, I was just wondering if someone more knowledgeable might point me in the right direction. I am thinking it sounds like a bearing going out just don't know which one to look for.
