    Mercruiser Bravo 3 Gimbal Housing assembly - transom installation.

    I wondered if anybody can help please. I am installing a Mercruiser Bravo 3 Gimbal Housing assembly in a newly modified transom. I have the proper Mecruiser cutting jig to drill the holes and mark out the cut-out on the transom and the 60 degree angle holes for the hole saw to install the...
