  • Mercury 175 rx2 SportJet lift ring

    I want to lift the powerhead out of the boat to work on the engine. The service manual specifies a lift ring that screws into the Flywheel. There are threads in the flywheel to accomidate the lift ring, does anyone know what thread spacing and size this would be. I have tried pipe sizes but they seem to be too big or small.

    The thread size is 1-1/2", 16tpi... fine thread (not pipe thread)

    You're gonna have a hard time finding anything off the shelf that will fit, besides the actual lift ring from Mercury...

    One can be made if you have a lathe however and maybe a welder, I had a machinist cut me those threads a while back.
