ABSTRACT:
A tool 50 for removing a hub assembly (6) from a chamber (14) in a gear housing (4) of an outboard engine (2) has a cylindrical body (52) with a first end (54) and a second end (56). Proximate the first end is a flange (98) for seated engagement over an opening (18) to the chamber to limit the depth the tool enters the chamber. At the second end is a bore (66) with protruding teeth (70) for engaging longitudinal grooves (26) of a shaft (8) of the hub assembly to prevent the shaft from rotating. A nut (78) with depending disc (82), a pair of washers (92) and a flat roller bearing (94) are disposed into a recess (72) that is concentrically aligned and congruent with the bore. The nut engages a threaded end (22) of the shaft and pulls the hub assembly axially within the chamber toward the tool until a bearing carrier (10) of the assembly engages the tool. The tool is removed from the hub assembly and the hub assembly is gently pulled from the chamber using nominal force.
