Did you get and install the bushings yet? Looks like you're making progress

I got one of the plastic split bushings in, pretty easy to put in since it just slides right in. I figured out I had to remove the old "bearing" first because ti was worn. Tux mentioned before some of the brackets had a different bearing. Had to hammer the old one out with a screw driver and then slide the new split bushing in. Just waiting for some parts and I am going to put the steering arm into the bracket.

Got a few more year of Merc experience and working on another project, I am still wondering why they changed to have the oil seal on the top in the newer models and the oil seal on the bottom of the swivel bracket in the older years? I am also wondering if I could put an oil seal and flat washer at the top and bottom of the swivel (not use the o-ring and plastic spacer)??

Not exactly what you mean but how about a thicker o ring and a metal washer at the bottom instead of the plastic spacer?
