So I decided to do an impeller replacement on an 7.5 chrysler outboard I recently got running. So I took the lower unit off and got the water pump housing unbolted and found a problem. The housing goes around both the driveshaft and shift shaft and the problem with that is the shift shaft after about 5 inches up starts to curve meaning I cant pull the pump housing straight off like you usually would. Does anybody know how I can slide the impeller housing off with that curved shift shaft causing problems? I have included a picture to give a better idea of what I am talking about.
