In continuance of an older topic titled Volvo steering arm removal
I need to get the gimbal ring off because I need to sandblast and paint it. I screwed the three screws off at the bottom, bought the 9/16" bolt and a big washer according to the descriptions above. What happened to me was that I destroyed the threads on the 9/16 bolt, and it slips off. The steering arm has moved a bit however.
What am I doing wrong?Is there anything else besides the three bolts under the outdrive, which needs to be removed? Does anyhting needs to be removed from the inside?
Thanks for all help
