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.

Re: Speedmaster vs. TRS
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?

Steve,
Is the Gimble in question the one that I sold you last spring, if so it is a TRS. Like Pat said a # 2 speedmaster uses the same upper as a TRS.If you need help figuring things out you can pm me your # again and I will give you a call.

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.

I have 2 set of good used TRS Gimbals inner and outers with trim rams if you need them.
The picture above is a number 3 setup
