"I have a 1986 4.3 mercruiser
"I have a 1986 4.3 mercruiser with a Alpha one outdrive. I removed the out drive and the gimbal bearing came apart.The interace of the bearing was on the drive shaft, and the rest of the bearing stayed in the housing. Do you think I can remove the broken bearing in the housing ,with a slide hammer? Or do I have to grind it out?"
