Spent all day Sat fighting to get gimble ring apart, then realized how bad it sucks to try to do tiller arm in the boat with engines in, decided since it’s soeedmaster to remove the transom assemblies and do off boat, will allow me to clean it up and paint better, new seals, and wet sand and buff transom...

she will I’ll be nice when done!!

Little elbow grease and it will look good as new! I noticed you pulled the transom assembly without pulling the engines, is it possible to do on a bravo setup in a TG?
