need to replace rudder packing gland seal on '92 TS6mcomp
Good morning,
I have a 92 comp with a 351 PCM.
Does anybody have part diagram on how the rudder assembly comes apart?
I got the cotter pin out and the nut off the threaded rod but I can't figure out how the get the threaded rod out of the arm.
It looks like the rudder post is notched where the threaded rod goes thru/into the arm, but I'm not sure.
There is also a key on the rudder post above packing gland nut.
I've got 2 marine service shops here in Lake County Illinois and both can't say how long it will take to repack seal,
they charge from $139 to $169/hour for service work and one guy said it might take 5 hours but he didn't know.
I'm not willing to roll the dice on $750 or more if I can do it myself.
I think there is enough room to do the job WITHOUT removing the gas tank?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks
Hugh
