I would get slammed for saying it is east.-----So in baby step it is.----Remove the lower mount brackets just 4 bolts.----Report when that is done.

Hi thanks for responding I am new to the outboard repair.
I ordered service manual
just figured there has to be some steps that can be bypassed
The new mount will be here today

if it had 2 wheels (Hd) would be no problem when you won’t one of these for 42 years you have no choice but to work on and learn
OK remove the four lower bracket bolts

Own

2 nuts on the upper side mounts and one nut on the upper inner mount..----9/16" socket through the access hole.----Disconnect any shift and throttle linkages.

Thanks again

I think you can now wiggle the steering bracket / pivot tube away to replace the mount.-----Did a 94 model last week.

Thanks again have the old one out problem was when I went to take the 9/16 nuts off was not there it came loose and was rubbing against the bracket ground the threads off. Went to install the new one
The threads are messed up on that one also they are shipping me a new one Tuesday
question is should I bolt the mount to the bracket and after Install the 916 not through the access hole ?
