Default More TRS questions!

What drive will bolt up to a TRS transom?

What lowers will fit on the TRS uppers and if so will they be shorter?

Thats all, thanks in advance

1. just TRS will bolt up
2. Speedmaster II lowers will bolt up to a TRS upper, but the drives will sit lower in the water.

phughes69 is partially correct.

The SSMII will bolt up and IS deeper.

However, a Konrad PRS 540 will also "Bolt up" to a TRS transom unit or to a TRS Gimbal. It is 1.66"shorter than the TRS and is far far more reliable. In fact Konrad has yet to have one 540 fail in service.

What advantages if any would a SMMII lower bolted to a TRS achive?

None, the SSMII lower is about 2" deeper than the TRS.
Also there are NO parts available for the SSMII.
And actually the SSMII unit was not as durable as the TRS lower.
