Closing this thread..
3 days to take apart…. 4 hours to put it together
The right tools are a must.
Coupler puller, eberts wrench, strut pro. And a skinny team mate to get in the bildge.
Tiara customer service was incredibly helpful as well as the team from Norscot.
NOT a 1 person job..
Tiara shaft some have end locking bolts on the shaft - mine had set screws.
Hardest part was taking off the coupler.
Detach from the transmission
spray with penetrating oil.
Put pressure on the coupler with the proper size puller.
Let sit and repeat.
Patience was the key … slow and steady.
At the end changed both cutlass bearings and shaft seals.
Back in the water…
Thank all.
