AQ100 outdrive help

[Hofty]

So I have released two stuck bolts on a Volvo AQ100 outdrive. Needing advice how to get the Leg off this portion if the drive. Tried to turn the flathead screw counter clockwise. But won't budge. Applied penetrating oil and heat. Any advice?

See attached pictures.

Did you remove the pin lock bolts?

If so, a brass drift and a hammer. Drive the pins toward the bellows

 

[Hofty]

Yes so I removed the drift bolts. So a punch will then knock the pins out?

Would a flat head screw driver and hammer work?

 

[Scott Danforth]

I would use a brass drift

 

[Hofty]

Once again Scott your advice has paid off. I used a brass drift and knocked the pin towards the bellow. I cannot finish the job as I have my kids so will finish up the job another day.

You're amazing. See how I knocked it in a bit. Making progress with this boat.

Use tef-gel when you put it back together
