hi all.....i am installing the gears in my lower unit.

i am having a real problem getting the pinion gear to seat......is there any tricks to this....i have read the manual 3 times and seloc just says it will slide in. ?

it is getting caught on the casing, and between the shift dogs on the prop shaft.

thanks

It does just slip in there , a little wiggle too.sometimes you can gently push the prop shaft down a tad.

I can't believe people purchase "seloc", with all the bad press it gets from everywhere.
