alignments not tough, just needs to be right.

I have a Merc - 5.7l to Alpha I

I did checked mine and had to do a small adjusment when I put on a new outdrive 5 years ago. a co-worker had an alignment shaft already. he had made his own at the shop we worked at.

this link will show you what an alignment tool will look like.

I have one of those alignment tools made to those specs. It was just another government job. I'll share it with anyone in my area.:)
