Gimbal Bearing Drive Head & Shoulder Screw

You can use this drive head with your own engine alignment tool by drilling a 3/8 hole thru it.

Slide the driver head onto your alignment bar and thread the 3/8 hardened shoulder screw thru it whenever you need to install a gimbal bearing. Your engine coupler is used to keep the tool straight while driving in the bearing.

Before removing your old bearing, slide the drive head onto the alignment shaft. Put the alignment shaft and drive head into your engine coupler until the alignment tool bottoms out into the engine coupler. Move the drive head against your old gimbal bearing and put a mark behind the drive head.

Remove the alignment tool and drive head from your boat. Now move the drive head 1/4 of an inch away from the mark, toward the small end of the tool. This is so when you drive in the new bearing, the alignment tool will not bottom out against the back of the coupler.

Now set the tool up in your drill press and use a 3/8 drill to transfer the hole thru your engine alignment tool.
