How do I re-align this shaft?
The lower shock mount pin on my Yammie 150 has lost a bolt/washer/bush and has worked itself loose - I was able to hammer it back in from one side but I can't get it to completely realign on the starboard side so I can re-bolt it from the other side...any suggestions? When I trim/tilt the motor, I can get close to realignment but not enough to get the shock mount pin all the way through.

Have you tried trimming the motor all the way up and using the engine tilt support bracket to release the pressure from the tilt/trim unit?

there is a up-dated pin, bolt ,washer set-up as this is a fairly common issue. If you go back with the original bolt washer set-up make sure you put "red" loctite on the bolts and tighten http://xs-s.com/zf/images/smile/emthup.gif " should not be that hard to re-align just use tour trim and trim up are down? http://xs-s.com/zf/images/smile/emthup.gif
