I can't get the lower unit off, the shift linkage needs to be disassembled from the lower unit, it only pulls down about 2 in. so I can change the water pump impeller. do I just remove the bolt next to the linkage on the lower unit.

with the lower unit in place, turn the prop, shift into reverse, hold the shift rod jam nut with a 10mm wrench.
using another 10mm wrench loosen the barrel nut until its clear of the shift rod.
screw up and pull the shift link on the gearcase up to far and it will require removal of the prop shaft and bearing carrier to reassemble the shift link in the gearcase.
just sayin
