I just got this new boat. Went to remove the flexshaft from the stuffing box to see if it had grease on it, and of course it did not have any grease. Thats after my son-in law got it out of the stuffing box. I couldn't get it out. He wiggled it around up by the motor while holding the flexshaft in place at hte U-Joint. IT HAD A GLOB OF SOLDER ON IT AT THE END. NICE, HUH!

ANYWAY THE QUESTION IS...the steerable drive system has only one bushing on the outdrive, shouldn't it have a bushing at both ends?? I would think so!

I haven't run the motor or done anything else with the boat yet.

The boat itself is a very nice looking boat!

I have pulled 2 bushings out of a BP out drive before. I am pretty sure there should be a set of them in there.

2- one by the u-joint and the other by the drive dog.
