    Gen VI 502 in a 1991 gen V boat oil cooler lines

    Alignment help!

    There isn't a different alignment bar but there can be a bad alignment bar. The coupler is one inch and guessing the shop did not use your bar, then there is something wrong with your rear motor mounts, or the mounts don't have the spring washer installed, or something wrong with the coupler...
