Thanks I just ordered two new tiller arm shafts. That # you gave me was not the ordering # and boy the guy that answered the line let me know it. WOW what an A$$. Told me not to call this # if I have questions. All I asked him was if they sold MERC parts or aftermarket. Going to get the parts ssand blasted and painted before I put them back togeather.

Just replaced my swivel shaft and gimbal ring. What a nightmare job with a small glimmer of light from WildthingTaz. I bought his kit that makes a window cut for access rather then the two side holes in the transom assembly. Saved alot of time and frustration. Ill post some pics soon.
