 GT lower unit rebuild.
Anybody got any pics of the guts before I crack it open? I got the rebuild kit in and will take a stab at it this weekend. There are a shitload of o rings.... Thread research didn't prove extremely fruitful.

 GT lower unit rebuild.
Pulley and taper lock are rusted bad. I out the Allen head screw in the extra hole and it won't back the taper off the pulley. I soaked it in WD40 to no avail. I beat the piss out of it with a plastic hammer away from the prop. Does it do any good to beat the pulley towards the prop or should I be hitting the taper lock only?
Also do you leave the Allen screw in while you attempt to get the pulley off?

The bitch is stuck and rusted bad. She's not cooperating.
