Hello, at the moment I'm planing to build a Trim Tab for my 1995 Cobra SX Drive. I like to use aluminium. In order to recreate the original, I need the dimensions. Does anybody has a drawing with the dimensions included? Thanks a lot, in advance... |

I looked in the parts catalog for the joint venture years (1994-1998) and the Cobras made then, do not have a trim tab at all. The older pure OMC models like mine do though, you can see it in this pic....On these you can adjust the angle of the tab, like an outboard.... http://www.crowleymarine.com/johnson-ev ... /56437.cfm The Volvo SX did not have one either...some have an exhaust flap in that area.... http://www.volvopentastore.com/Lower-Ge ... _id.792041 So the question is, why do you want to do this? |

Hi, thank you for your answer. I like to do that, because at higher speeds, I have a light left spin and I have to counter-steer. I think with a additional trim tab I can compensate this spin. I do not dare to adjust the steering, because I have'nt done this before. In my drive is a hole for mounting a trim tab. That is the reason why I am searching for. |

Interesting it does not appear in the parts diagrams but maybe it was an option. Why not put adjustable trim tabs on your boat? They ate designed to do what you want. |
