I just picked up a 2000 Johnson 90hp. There is a bit of corrosion on the lower mounts that has everything out of line and causing the shift rod to hang up.

My question is...How do I replace these?

Thanks for any advice!

Yes, I had to use a large drill bit and drill out some of the aluminum. I drilled out the corners and a few holes around the metal peg in the middle to make space. Then used a chisel and hammer and beat the crap out of it. Eventually it all came out in chunks. Cleaned it up then a slid the new mount in. Good as new, I did also have to replace the shift cable. I took some pictures, I'll try post them tomorrow at work

I used to drill two holes in the metal part of the mount and tap them for a 1/2" bolt STD thread. Then take the bolts and screw them in evenly and it would press the mount out. Always worked for me.
 
I will definitely try all the suggestions. I sure am glad that we are here to help each other out. I would not know what to do if it weren't for this forum. Thanks a million
