I could use some advice I just bought the boat last year well cleaning the drive up for paint I noticed there was a lot of back and forth movement in the gimbal ring is it possible its just the ring and not the pin or is that just wishful thinking.because the ring is the only thing that looks worn from what I can see from outside I see they sell a stainless ring and shaft for $1,000( OEM Original same price ) and when its apart bearing bellows and cable kit $250 plus the trim sensors they don't work now haven't checked that price yet ….also the kit from Hill Marine to cut the hole . so add some beer ice and when there is a job like this you need to buy more tools so maybe $1600??? if Im lucky and 2 more weeks on a trailer ..any advice would help So now editing this post I hit the bearing down around the sides with a piece of oak it lined up much better looks like I just have to raise the front up maybe one flat

mechanic. New ring and bearing are in. He had to do the work over because the ring had a defect from Quicksilver, and he had to take the whole thing apart and do it over.
