Assuming it's the newer style DP, it's very similar to a Mercuiser. The link below makes it seem much more complicated than it is, bus great photos.

Rather than using a motorcycle jack to adjust the height of the drive, I adjust the height of my boat transom with the trailer jack. I made a simple drive stand out of scrap lumber that sits on a mechanic's creeper and the drive height is fixed. The creeper has great casters that let the drive move in any direction easily and is really cheap to buy.
If it's an older DP, the process is a bit more complicated.
