Ok a few questions :

1. Are these couplers supposed to be press fit onto shaft ?
2. The shaft has a small lip from the seal heating up and failing , should I take it it get machined or buy a new shaft and coupler ?
3. Before I stabbed the engine 5 yrs ago I pulled the coupler and shaft together to replace the bellow . But when I removed the set screws the coupler slipped right off and there are two set screw divets in the shaft where the set screws landed . Is that ok ? Does it create a stress point ?
4. Is the prop shaft centered with the rudder or off to the right ? Cause mines off to the right a bit . And when I tried to budge the prop shaft to meet shaft to shaft log true I felt tension and seems I'll have to move strut a bit .

Thanks for the help gents !
