Great instructive video. No annoying music, simple explanations and the standard number of fbombs. Still looking for an XR upper gear replacement video.

[@adi1955]

Excellent mechanic - correct techniques and the correct number of f words.

How do you disassemble the top bearing?

[@MrGeorgeferreira]

HI , if i can ask you a question. does the shift cable have to be in the nuetral or forward position when putting the drive back? or taking it down for that matter. Thank you

[@peternorth1870]

What thread size is that long threaded rod and nut and washers u used to pull the shifter shaft out with ..? Thanks

[@wyotech865]

Did you ever figure which size thread rod

[@dalereed8220]

I have a Bravo 111 and the shift does not want to go into reverse, i removed the transit from the boat to replace the cable but there is nothing a wrong with the cable so i pulled the plate off to get to the shifter and i put and adjustable wrench on the shifter arm and it acts like it wants to hang up, what would case that

[@MrBIG4D]

You refer to something called "number 2" grease when you installed your o rings. Can you tell me what this number 2 grease is? About to tackle this job myself. Thanks. Great vid.

[@HOLYHOUSE]

My guess is he's talking about Permatex #2 Form A Gasket, which is used a lot in marine repair. It's not really grease, but rather a permanently pliable sealant that A) keeps the gasket in place when reinstalling and 2) helps create water tight seals where it is applied. I personally use the Quicksilver Perfect Seal but all of these non-hardening sealants are gold when doing marine repairs. Evinrude Johnson Gasket Sealing Compound and Permatex Aviation Form-A-Gasket are both also very popular.

[@FreedomIsntFree2023]

I know this is old post but "#2" grease is a general multi purpose grease. Look up NLGI2 grease. Not sure why you would use a "form-a-gasket" on an o-ring application.

[@crapalator]

Fuck sakes,anymore Bravo out drive vids?My Bravo 2 making some noise,im assuming it is the Ujoints?

[@mastershakebmore]

What did you brush over it in the beginning to clean it off?

[@tonykramps420]

What size are the bolt heads to remove the back plate are they simply a 12 point socket ?

[@Interdiction]

Would the Bravo 1 SZ Be a reliable leg for a cummins 6bt running 200 hp

[@jaymorgan8017]

Mine takes 420 hp. A standard 454 marine application.

[@jacksbackable]

I know with the VW V6, they use the Bravo2! Cummins 6BT are a great engine. You have to remember the torque that you have straight up with a diesel, as apposed to developing hp with a petrol V8.

[@JohnYazell]

Bravo 2X for Diesels

[@Louissimarine]
