Default Re: Transom Swells about half an inch

When we removed my 150 johnson we did not use a hoist just three guys and some beer. We pushed the trailer over to where I was going to leave the motor then lowered the motor down onto a peice of wood. Then we disconected all the wires steering etc.. We removed the four bolts holding on the motor then just laid the motor over. The biggest problem we had (three of us) we were prepared for it to weigh more than it did and we faught each other more then the weight of the engine. We just reversed the process to put it back on and you can use the trailer jack to line the holes back up.Oh, and when your rmoving the motor have the your beers sitting out of the way as my buddy knocked mine over.
