    Not as of yet, still purchasing a few things yet.

    1989 omc cobra gear case problem

    Sorry for the late very late reply, do you have the correct adjustment tools to install the lower shift cable? A possible reason for the tough shifting could be your ESA switches are not adjusted properly or not working. They should shift relatively easy. There is also the shift fork that needs...

    1989 omc cobra gear case problem

    I'm no expert but these were a few thoughts I had, I'm about to put mine back together soon but I need to order a few more things yet.

    1989 omc cobra gear case problem

    The pinion gear is drawn up the splined tapered shaft, if it's not tight enough it could possibly cause your issue.

    1989 omc cobra gear case problem

    Besides the gears what else did you replace? Do you know what caused the failure? My thinking is could there be damage to the gearcase or a difference in another part where additional shims may be required. #51 are shims, there are different thicknesses of shims available.

    The last I checked (been quite awhile) the resin was 3x more than I paid.

    1989 omc cobra gear case problem

    Is the propeller shaft too high or the pinion shaft too low? Is the pinion gear positioned correctly on the pinion shaft? Ie: not being drawn high enough when the nut is tightened.

    I totally agree Scott, I do know with the increased costs of restoration supplies I probably couldn't afford to do it now.

    Who makes this coating? I could see some good uses for my boat.

    88 Capri Restoration (Splashed 08/2022)

    It's amazing how much the price varies. I have seen this set for 650 on Marine engine.com. I know I have an undesirable setup by today's standards, which is most likely why some parts are not reproduced like some others. (Small Gearcase with Ford engine) 😊

    88 Capri Restoration (Splashed 08/2022)

    I had spoken to them also, they only had used ones. I am going to put in as much new as I can which is why I have been holding out on them. I found them for $100 far less than most places. Simple pleasures for simple minds! 😁

    88 Capri Restoration (Splashed 08/2022)

    Hello everyone, I hope your summer is great! One of the main items that has been keeping me from using my boat is a gearset for the lower gear case. The only real problem that I noticed was the excessive wear on the forward gear bushing, I looked into finding the bushing but the companies that...
