Changing the Gimbal ring? Has anyone dont this?

If the pins at the pivot points come out without having to use heat( then you are repainting things ), it is about a 3-4 hour job if you have some skills. I have broken 2 over time and one came apart another I sent off to have the whole tramson assembly rebuilt and repainted because the pins would not come out and a little heat was required to remove them.

What did it cost you to have it done after you sent it out. The parts and the rebuild? Not the R & R

The gimbal was like $2500, the place that did it no longer services # 6 stuff. I think to have the transon assembly rebuilt and repainted including new gimbal ring was something like $4500. Colabella, TNT, Cobra, Guy in Havasu,( call Teague ) for Havasu #.

Thx apprecialte the info, has anyone else had one replaced and at what cost?

The guy in Havasu is Vern; he did a great job for me at a very reasonable price. http://westcoastdrives.com/
