It will be to your advantage to purchase a Seloc or Clymer service manual from a dealer or save some cash and buy the Mercruiser factory service engine and OD manuals on eBay for the year of the engine & OD of the boat. Just follow the detailed directions.

"You'll also need a slide

"You'll also need a slide hammer, or something similar to pull the old bearing. Not a tough job at all.
Before installing the new bearing slip it on the leg input shaft and make sure it fits over the area near the yoke, where the two O rings are. When re-installing the drive, use lots of grease on these O rings and the splines.
Good luck,
