A pic tells the story.
Here's the good motor. The starboard side.

The strut to stuffing box alignment seems dead nuts on. The engine/gearbox to shaft coupler is a slight but off and shoul be able to adjust using the mounts. The motors are mounted on the large, rubber mounted, single stud type adjustable mounts.

Here's the port shaft coupler. This Is after the shaft has been forced up thru the stuffing box.

there is not enough adjustment to fix this.
Plus this is pretty much where the shaft wants to sit with the strut the way it is now.


it's a single strut set up. This was the way it was when I hauled out. The stuffing box was just about blown out.
