Over the Seloc manual for an Alpha One!

[WSR]

I have a 1990 4.3L V6 Merc Alpha One.
Thanks to Don I was able to download the OM manual for my engine. Man...what a thing of beauty it is.
I need the same thing for my Alpha drive.
The Seloc manual I have covers like 20+ years of boats and is not specific enough. I am looking for diagrams, specific maintenance ect.
I have some intermittent growling coming from the drive when turning, and want to troubleshoot it before it gets worse.

You want manual #6 for your Alpha.

Time to pull the drive, check the gimbal bearing, ujoints, and alignment.
Also make sure there is NO water in that bellows, or the drive (Change the gear lube)

The darn link only has a few pages or so. Any way of searching out another or the best way to get a hold of one?
I might as well buy it I am sure its worth it.
I am however eager to get to that drive.
The last link has been a life and big $ saver. What other paperwork should I get while I'm at it? I have the Bayliner owners manual and engine manual and of course the seloc.
Its been great turning this thing around with all your help!

Ah Ha, you need to download each chapter on its own separately and rename it each time as not to write over the last saved.
Thank you Don!
