i took off my outdrive and put all new bellows and such on. of course now i try to put it all back on and i cant find the bolt that goes from the steering case to the outdrive. its just one big bolt, (i think the 2 year old took it and ran off with it. probably find it a year down the road in a toy chest.) so i cant find the part # for it, anyone know so i can try to find one? would it be possible just to get a bolt that fits that from a hardware store? not sure on length and threads, maybe someone would know better then me.
Volvo Penta 270, thanks
on side note, is there a trick to getting the bellows to snap onto the drive? i have to play with it more seems damn near impossible. to get the bellows to lock onto the boatside must be an art for a person with smaller hands than me.
