replacing bolsters on 210 Ventura

The starboard bolster has the gear shifter attached tru the bolster to a backing block behind the sidewall. Does anyone know how the gear shifter can be removed so I can take off the bolster. There is very little if any room behind the sidewall to reach behind the bolster and gear shifter. I can take off the two black plastic pieces on either side of the gear shifter, which reveals three screw heads and two heads of bolts. How does the bolster come off with the gear shifter on that side? Does the gear shifter have to come off as well? Are there any diagrams on how this is installed? thanks you for any help with this.

There maybe either a set screw or a cover that is hiding a screw attaching the arm. Depends on which shifter model you have. One of these may work: http://www.discount-marine.com/club/f...ruiser.pdf https://www.marineengine.com/parts/me...power-trim Edited by Phil T on 10/16/19 - 10:31 AM 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT
