These are some photos of the X Power Drive Stainless Gimbal Ring kit, and the kit installed.

Those look nice, how do they fit up? as good as they look?What is the price tag?

Very nice !

They fit as perfectly and easily as a stock production unit, maybe easier because you don't use the stock tiller arm.

whats the cost?

Probably comparable to the X-Drive vs Bravo XR....

I think he said about 2500 in the other thread.

I think if I say a price the cancel the thread for advertising, but you can see them in the classified adds under drives and lower units and it shows there.

So that means external steering only? The bore diameter is not compatible with a stock upper swivel shaft?

I guess if you're gonna go with the X-bling, external steering should be a given.

I think if you can get away with a tiller arm style steering than I don't think the X Power Gimbal ring is necessary, and would be a waste of money, unless you want something shiny on the back of your boat...
