Finally replaced engine mounts, two come-alongs to balance engine, but finally got them in today. Waiting for PYI to refurbish my Maxi-Prop, then have new shaft made, coupling and prop hub fitted. Thanks Ray for the sage advice !

Hello Puff Card,

Removed strut and slid it off shaft no problem. Algonac Marine Cast P/N Tartan-225-356. Great service and very reasonable. I have attached my packing list.
Another fun project.

Good job. You are set up for quite a few years. Anyone going cruising offshore with an unrestored T37 should consider this work. A failure in this is really hard to fix when you are not near a travel lift and a yard.
