Anyone have a lower unit stand? If so did you build it and if so what are the dimensions? I want to build one to make it easier to change lower unit impellers. I have twin F250s.
Thanks.

Lower unit stand

I just cut a piece of 1/2" plywood 3'x3' and cut a notch same shape but smaller than cavitation plate. I use two portable horses to rest the plywood. I can easily store that flat piece of plywood when i'm not using it in season. Works very well for what i need it for which is changing my water pumps every 2 years and did my lower unit seals last year. Some guys use the black and decker adjustable work horse from home depot. That looks ok also but mine doubles as a flat surface for my tools and parts.

This is what I use on my 200 HPDI lower.
Crank it pretty tight and I have not had an issue.
Brings it up to a nice working level for me.

The black and decker workhorse works excellent and is useful for other things and stows away against a wall when not in use

Garbage can, ping pong table, carboard over your kitchen table. You don't need a special stand for this.
I use two very large wood blocks. Put them right next to each other so that they are almost touching, and put the "fin" down into the crack. Cheap and simple.
