    Your carrier obviously needs to come out and those bearings replaced.


    **That video goes WAY deeper than you need to. Their tearing the entire unit apart.


    Do a search on You Tube for "Danger Marine". He has a bunch of videos there, explained in plain English for the layman..

    Yes, that's what I was planning to do, I realize that yamaha video is taking a part the whole lower unit, I did concentrate on the bearing carrier but what I'm afraid of is being able to get old bearings and the gear out, then pressing the new in.
    I actually watched danger Marine videos as well, unfortunately he doesn't show how to on those bearings.

      If it's not moving around, up/down, side to side enough to cause the seals to leak then maybe just old/loose/warn bearings.....maybe run it like it is....how much is the movement?... Like a few thousandths of an inch?... More?

        Thanks for reply Robert!
        The movement is not enough for the prop even to touch the bearing carrier, I would say paper thickness.

        I just called local shop that fixes Yamaha bikes and they placed the order for me. Parts 44, 47, 46,46,48,49,49
        They do not work on outboards, but I just hope
        if I'm in trouble taking the old bearings out they should have the proper tools if they are Yamaha certified repair shop.

          You shouldn't need a press to get those bearings out of the carrier.

          Knocking them out a socket slightly smaller should work fine or working with an extension back and forth (evenly to the bearing) should be ample..

          Installing you can't smack the inner part of the bearing, strictly the outside of it.. Freezing the bearing will shrink it some, that would make it a little easier pushing back into the carrier(but have to work quick)..

            Thanks for the tips, still not sure how to remove the gear first

              I think you need a shop.

                Nice to have specific tools for that LU.
                But if you look carefully, an appropriate drift, modified long puller and a standard bearing (wedge) puller is about all that is needed.

                Nice to use a press but taping method can be used - noticed that the removal of a ball bearing had a standard puller on the outside race with the press pushing the inside race. Not a good practice as the bearing cannot be used again. Popping bearings that way also exposes the parts to damage, as the inner race will wobble around with balls trying to find centering on the INSIDE edge, that they are really is not designed to do.

                But daunting task to be sure; at first you can't see what you are doing and very possibility you will be stumped at the first hurdle trying to undo that carrier nut!

                  The motor is taken out of water every time after use and is used in fresh water only so I hope the carrier won't be seized.
                  I purchased new bearings so damaging the old on removal would not be a problem.

                    It could end that way, but I will give it a shot ....

                          Yes, I do operate in metric and standard I have no clue what size of parts expect inside tho .
                          So, good idea just go bigger ?

                            I have no idea what size the bearings and gears are in your lower unit,
                            but I am fairly sure the mini set was too small

                              F60, here is how it looks like, too bad he doesn't show how to replace the bearings
