[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 492042, member: 3438"] This is my 1st outboard that one or two guys couldn't lift. I know that an engine hoist along with an eye bolt or other support is used for removal/install. I'm wondering if there is an easier way when I want to raise it just one hole (3/4")? Looking at it, thinking that might be able to loosen the two lower (slotted) bolts, and block the bottom of the mount at the transom, or from the bottom of the jet foot. Remove the top bolts and use bottle jack to raise. Thoughts? I'd like to hear how you did it. Thanks. 2 Comments Like Comment Send [/QUOTE]
