cutlass bearing(s) on Freedom 39 Deck Salon

Post by monroe »

Hola,

I have a 1983 (4?) Freedom 39 Deck Salon. Does anyone know:

The size of the cutlass bearing in the strut? I think it's 1 1/4" x 2" x 5".

There is play where the shaft exits the boat from the engine/transmission. It looks like there could be room for another bearing in the hull. Is this so, and would it be the same size as the one in the strut?

Which is prefered: metal jacket or fiberglass?

Thanks
