TRS to #3
What is involved with converting a TRS boat to #3 drives?
Thanks |
Re: TRS to #3
Fill, recut the transom. New gimbal, SSM tailstock for the tranny, add external hydraulic steering.
Oh yeah, may need new motor mounts (changed drive height) and exhaust modifications. |

I have checked the konrads. I just dont have the budget yet for two 540's. I do have one #3 transom/drive already. Just looking into the future...

I dont think a 3 will make you happy with all the work $ to convert

#3 will slow you down over a TRS. It's a chit load of work, Ive done one before and it just isn't worth it. The Konrad is a one day conversion and will cost you no more than the price of the drive.
Just did this Pantera last week. |

Re: TRS to #3
Prater,
Do you have full hydraulic external steering? If not, you'll need to convert to it. Although a few IIIs did come with internal steering, almost nothing from a standard TRS steering or TRS with "add on" hydraulics will work on a III. That addition to the price might get you a little closer to the Konrad swap. Gary |

Prater, How's the condition of your #3? PM me a price and I'd help the cause to get you even a little closer to Konrad swap :cool: :)
