I have a Volvo Penta 280 outdrive and have to replace the transom shield. Can you share any recommendations on additional service I should consider while I have the drive off?

You have to remove the engine and the outdrive to replace the transom shield, along with the exhaust tube/Y.
Every seal has to be replaced, including the new seal ring between the transom shield and the transom. Don't even think about trying to use the old flat one.
