ABSTRACT:
A marine propulsion device is provided with an access opening through a portion of its gimbal housing. At least two support locations, formed integrally with the gimbal housing, provide locations to support a swivel shaft that attaches a gimbal ring to the gimbal housing. A steering lever is attached to the swivel shaft at a location between the points of support. The shaft extends through cylindrical holes in both support portions of the gimbal housing and a nut extends at least partially through one of the cylindrical holes to retain the swivel shaft and steering lever in position. The nut is removable from the shaft by accessing the nut through the opening formed in the support structure of the gimbal housing.
