Well I went ahead and did both gimbal rings the J-R MARINE way.
Ron from J-R Marine was GREAT to deal with.
I used his plate kit and stainless steal pins.
Desided to buy new gimbal rings from TEAGUE Marine
Replaced the gimbal bearing while there.
checked engine alingment THANKS to board member WALLY he updated my engine alignment tool so I could use it on the steel couplers.
New rings,bellows,bearings and were back together
I am saying that you can change them without pulling the motors!!! I have done it dozens of times, There is some boats that dont allow you to have access, But I know that a 29 powerquest can be done without pulling the motors!

Thanks for taking time to talk to me.
PQ must have changed the way they cut the transom hole in 2000.
I think you can see how the fiberglass came way down,I tried but there was no way I could slip a wrench in there.
