If you want it completed right, you need the alignment tool.

$50 is pretty common on ebay. If that still isn't good enough, in the manual that bondo posted above for you, you can get the dimensions for the tool and have one made locally. Doubt it will be any cheaper though.

Sorry, don't know what to suggest on the shipping to Canada situation.

OOPS again, the specs are in the engine manual, not the drive manual. PM me with your email and I'll send you the page that has the specs.
