I have a Mercury 55H gearcase whose tailcone and case inner threads are too loose from wear and I need a thread re-work with an oversize cone kit. Who is doing that sort of work these days and how can I get a hold of the party doing them to make arrangements to get it done soon? Post here or email me at catwerx@hotmail.com

John - Al is correct. I had a chance to view Alan VanWeels fix at the fall AOMCI meet at Mark Sutters. First rate work. Here is a pic I took of the one that was there. Alan can reached at apvw1@aol.com

We have completed over 30 repairs on the worn out threads and all worked well. Now we have new billet cone nuts and bearing carriers for the D's, A/B/C's to follow soon. D drive shafts should be done in about 6 weeks along with water pump cartridges. We hope to do prop shafts this fall and a few other things.
