Take leg off of 65 hp Johnson

[freeceller]

My problem is getting leg off of my 1990 Johnson 65hp,model CJ65WMLESM.I think it is sealed and I dont know how to break the seal as my manual says it should just drop off after taking bolts out.
thanking you in advance freeceller

If you have all the bolts out including the one under the trim tab, then likely the driveshaft splines in the crankshaft are rusted.-----------This will really hold it together.---------I have used a hydraulic puller to seperate these.---------------When was the last time it was taken apart ??---------Salt water use ???
