Default Broke my bravo Bell Housing Assembly

Well yesterday I was out in my scarab. On the way back in I noticed that steering down the canal was loose ( I have full hyd steering) not normal for my boat. Well we pull the boat out and looked the bell housing assembly broke around the hindge pin on the starboard side... Is that normal, what could of caused it beside jumping waves?? Thanks Kyle


This is what broke / any one have one cheeper then this>>>

If you broke the Bell housing, than you better check the Ring very closely, make sure it's not cracked. I have seen alot of this. I do have a fix for a lot of them and have had very good results. We have some used parts, if you don't want to by new. Also if you want send the complete Gimbal I can possible update it, if that hasen't been done already. Give me a call at; 954 237 0332
