Default TRS lower questions

First off I dont know that much about the drives so I apericate everyones help with my questions. I have been looking for a TRS drive LH rotation and most of them that I find have a nosecone. which I think that my drives on my boat do not have nosecones if I put a drive on with a nose cone is that going to create a proplem other than if some one looks at it and calls me a dumba$$ for having one on the leftside and not one on the right?

Thanks

If the one on the one is epoxy'd on there u can also try to take it off,,,big hammer and finesse !!!

But yes either way will work,,just make shure they have the same gear ratio as yours .

Spin the input shaft 15 times and the prop shaft should spin 10 times ( 1:50 ) !!!!

There is a complete TRS LH drive in the Offshore Only Classifieds for $1650.If you check into it though question that it is for sure a LH drive because in the picture there is a RH prop on it.If you wanted to switch your internals to another case there is a new, in the box lower case with the pinion bearing for $1100.Pinion bearings are $106.There was a lower case on ebay for $500 up until yesterday.It never sold though so it may return.It's usually cheaper to find a complete used drive than to try to put together a lower.
