Guess my last post must have been too wordy or something, not a single reply! Let me try getting to the point quickly.<br /><br />Lower unit won't come off. Have seen many suggestions, have tried most of the easier ones, but still no luck.<br /><br />Want to make sure that I'm not missing a bolt. I have removed the bolt under the trim tab, the nut just forward of the trim tab, and have loosened the 2 nuts just above and toward the front of the anti-cav plate.<br /><br />Lower unit drops about 1/8 inch and stops. If I peek in thru the very front of the gap, it looks like there is a threaded post or bolt, but my seloc manual makes no reference to one being there, and I cannot locate any place to remove another nut or bolt.<br /><br />Before I get busy with a slide hammer on this thing, can anyone tell me if there is a hidden bolt on this unit?<br /><br />Also, when I first tried to drop it, it was not in forward gear, later I put it in forward, and since then have tried running engine and going forward/reverse to break it loose (no luck). Could I have jammed something by not having it in forward initially?<br /><br />Many thanks (in advance) to all the knowledgable and helpful folks here!<br /><br />FW
