6 gear outdrive problem

Post by **85Edinger** » Fri May 04, 2012 7:24 am

Hi all,
I am having a problem with one of my 6 gear's outdrives. I just installed new bearings, and now, whenever one of the outdrives gets pushed in a little, it stops spinning freely. If I pull it out a bit, it is fine. Could something be improperly assembled?
Thanks!

Sounds to me like the c-clip has popped out and binding with the spline plate.

That would make sense, except I forgot to mention, I discovered the problem while the transmission was disassemed to install bearings. I made sure to check the c clip. Thanks, though.

I am thinking no one knows the answer. Or can it be everyone is in stealth mode these days?

How many bearings in each outdrive? If you can push and pull the outdrives it sounds like there is something missing
