Any suggestions on how to lift a 150 HP off of a transom? It doesn't need to be moved anywhere, just removed so I can adjust the bracket that it is mounted on.

Back it under a tree that has a heavy horozontal branch and use a chain fall or come-along to lift it off via the eye hook on the engine. Adjust the bracket and drop it back on.
You can rent chain falls or come-alongs if you don't have one.

I've seen a sling type harness that slips around the motor. If I remember correctly Cabelas or Overtons had it. I'm sure you could make it your self. Good Luck....

shamp525,

The safest thing would be to rent an engine hoist from Uhaul. This way you will be able to lower it right back in the same spot.

Don't mess around. Do it right because if it falls you can get very hurt. Make sure your not alone when doing this.
