GEARCASE – COUNTER ROTATION GEARCASE
DISASSEMBLY
IMPORTANT:
Counter rotation (CR) gearcases
use unique components and require different ser-
vice procedures. Use care when working on
counter rotation gearcases. DO NOT interchange
parts between standard and counter rotation mod-
els. Identify gearcase type prior to disassembly.
Make sure the “CR” marking is on the end of the
propeller shaft.

Refer to Pre-Disassembly Inspection on p. 294.
Propeller Shaft Bearing Housing
Removal – “M2” Type
IMPORTANT:
The propeller shaft bearing hous-
ing on “M2” type gearcases is PRESSED into
gearcase housing.
Remove the two retaining screws holding the pro-
peller shaft bearing housing.
Remove the propeller shaft bearing housing from
the gearcase using:
•
Propeller Shaft Bearing Housing Puller Kit,
P/N 354060.
DO NOT use tools designed to push on the pro-
peller shaft. Pushing against the propeller shaft
could damage the forward gear thrust bearing or
thrust washer.

to the propeller shaft until seated.
Assemble puller kit components. Hold adaptor
with wrench and turn nut clockwise to pull bearing
housing.
Pull propeller shaft and bearing housing far
enough to loosen the PRESSED bearing housing
from the gearcase housing.
