alpha one

[lancaster0321]

Iv got a 87 Mercruiser 3.0 with a alpha 1 out drive, i pulled my out drive off to put a new one on. I checked my alignment and the tool goes in slides in and out very easy, But when I bottom the tool out and try to remove it, Its very hard to get out almost like its stuck. I greased the tool like the book says to but still its hard to pull out. So my question is what would cause this. Please help I'm ready to get on the water.

So my question is what would cause this.

The alignment is a little bit off.
Have a look at the thread in the link below, and watch the videos. Gives you a good idea of what to expect.
