Tools for yamaha

I have a 1987 Yamaha 25hp outboard that I need to change the bearings for the prop shaft. I need the special wrench for removing the spanner nut behind the prop and I can't find one. Any suggestions?

Any Yamaha dealer should be able to get you one.

Better still, a real good dealer might loan or rent you his for a short period of time.

As Rodbolt17 has said many times it may be easier to drill holes in it and break it out if it is the one I am thinking about (claw nut)and replace with new if it has any corrosion in lower unit

Will still need a wrench to put the new ring back on tho.

make one from metal pipe use new nut as guide

Got that far easily enough, but can't pull the bearing carrier. Any ideas for a TLR 90?

[aussiemarkc]

Have you removed the shift shaft? It won,t come out with it in place.

[amahaork]

not sure for your model, just check Carrier it's not yamaha, but close and has all dimensions that give you idea.

my idea is quit thread hopping.
are you nuts??????
do you understand the difference between a 25 and a 90????

ya think cause its Yamaha its all the same?

if you have an issue don't thread hop.
post your own thread STARTING with your motors MODEL number.
only then will any information may help.

Sorry Past searches didn't help.

Sorry Past searches didn't help.

Please, just start a completely new thread, provide your complete model identity (PID if not a USA model) and state your specific problem and question.

A Yamaha is not a Yamaha is not a Yamaha. There can be many differences between models. They are not all the same.

Removing the bearing carrier on a 1987 25 hp yamaha.

I drilled and broke out the spanner nut that holds the bearing carrier in place and now the carrier won't come out. This is the first time I have done this. Does the bearing carrier screw in like the spanner nut or does it slide in? I think it slides in but before I go putting a lot of heat and prying I thought I would ask.

[rodbolt17]

what I did was ran over to the local machine shop.
had them build me a tool from a 3" piece of 1 1/4 prop shaft.
drilled and tapped one end to fit my slide hammer threads and the other end got drilled and tapped for the propshaft threads.
I also made one to fit the 9.9/15 two strokes.
the tool the book shows barely works in the class room.
