trs spacer

Is there a TRS spacer that you can get that goes between the upper and lower? Used to lower prop shaft? If so, do they have a 1", 2", 3" or what? And also, who makes it? (Merc or aftermarket)? Thanks.

I was going to ask the same question. Lower? Why not just toss out the anchor?

I ask the same thing every time i see this question but I know they make/made spacers. Can't imagine why you would want one though....

I'd suggest going the other way, shorter. Look for some #2 speedmaster lowers. I think their 1-2" shorter and should work better and help pickup a few mph.

#2 is longer and weaker, not shorter. don't remember how much longer.

SSMII is 1" longer than TRS from input shaft to propshaft.
