Speedmaster vs. TRS
What is the differnce between the two drives. Do they fit the same gimbal housing? I believe I have a Speedmaster gimbal that was sent to me as a TRS gimbal. Which would be better? I was trying to match the TRS that I already have. The part number on the inside transom plate is 46986.
Sorry about the questions. Just needing a few quick answers.

Don't have the books in front of me, but if memory serves, everything in that era was the same till you got to the lower gearcase assmb. so you should be O.K. --- Jer

A speedmaster II outdrive uses a TRS upper and gimble. It is just the lower unit that is different. Why do you think you have a speedmaster gimble, do they not look the same?

Looks like I have a Speedmaster III or above gimbal assembly if anyone is interested in trading for a new style TRS gimbal assembly...

Her is a pic of the gimbal in question. From what I have searched on the internet it is a speedmaster gimbal. Just needs to be cleaned up. Th outer assembly has about 3 coats of paint. The inner has some white paint splatters.
