I pulled the diagram and I see where you're trying to get to, looks like on the opposite side there is a pin and at the end in the picture there's a cotter pin keeping you from drifting that pin out. Once you get this out you might need a drift pin to get this one out. The pin at the other end looks like it has threaded ends in the diagram, but they could just be barbed and set in the plastic support fork that comes up when the motor is stowed, it's hard to say.



I have a 65lb maxxum you're welcome to borrow until the water turns hard then worry about fixing yours over the winter. At least you won't be out of commission waiting for parts to come in.
