I got an email today that Tommy's is selling boats from anywhere to anywhere at the 'Best prices you'll ever see!'
It is a good time for a new Malibu/Axis if you can get your local dealer to service the boat.

It's not that hard to remove, especially for a Kansan. Below is when I removed mine, and how I did it. +1 for the dripless shaft seal upgrade.

Check the strut to make sure it isn't bent as well. I suspect it would bend before the shaft does, and may be a large part of the problem.
After straightening a whole lot of aluminum arrows back in my archery days, I would say that you could certainly straighten a prop shaft. You could make a roller stand with some ball bearings and use a dial indicator to test for straightness.
As an alternative, you could turn it between centers if you have a big enough lathe. Turn it relatively slowly and use a marker to find the high point.
Find the high point and gently bend it on a press stand. Rinse and repeat. It goes pretty quickly once you figure out what you are doing.
I suspect you could do it on the boat by lifting vertically against the strut, but that assumes that the strut is where the bend is. Your dial indicator in a variety of locations along the shaft will help you know if that is true.

And don't forget to clean and inspect the return (ground) cables as well. The poor connection could be on battery plus or minus.
I periodically lie on my back and clean every connection I can find under the dash, then spray all of them with light spray oil to help keep oxygen away. It is basically a miracle cure for the things that don't work well, and a great way to familiarize myself with the circuits in the boat.

8 hours ago, athingisathing said:I found the kit.... this has everything to connect to all the female plugs that plug into amps in the 2023 lsv with a 9502 and 1206.
This kit will have all you need. This and the color code and the bb-10 kit
Thoughts
No you will need the “b keyed” deutsch connectors. It varies which depending on how boat was ordered. Dt06-08pb dt06-08pb, tower speaker is always dt06-04 (not b key) and remote signal on boats with 6ch cabin is dt06-02 (not b key). Boats with 4ch cabin have remote signal on the 12pin. Just buy corresponding parts and pin them to the schematic.
