    Lowrance Transducer Mounting

    When mounting a transducer u must have the crease of the transducer to line directly up with the bottom of the boat.

    Usually you have to use a 60 amp breaker that sits between the hot wire.

    Trailer spring

    Well 4 hrs later and 2 hundred cuss words later I have finally finished. Btw for the tie plate nuts the nylon nuts are way better. The ones that came with the tie plates stripped everytime and cause 99% of the cussing lol

    Trailer spring

    I haven't completely installed the bolt cuz I still have to drill the holes in the axle. Had to line them up first.

    Trailer spring

    Here is what it came to. Only moves a tad bit which is perfect. And for the plastic inserts they are a smaller size then the bolts that are used.

    Trailer spring

    This hang is pretty think. I tried hitting it will a hammer to see if it would budge and didn't move a mm lol. Im thinking i might want to add a washer or an aluminum space on both sides since i cant be sure that hanger will move closer.

    Trailer spring

    See my worry is its going to be too loose on the trailer and my axle will shift left and right since its not close to binded. Should i get like aluminum washers or spacers to reduce the spacing in between them?

    Trailer spring

    Im using circle to oval locking nuts. Talked to the trailer guys at eastern marine and they said they work good. So your saying just tighten up the bolt and ill be hine. That gap will still be there probibly.

    Trailer spring

    I am redoing the whole axle and I got new trailer springs. My issue is is that the new springs bushings are in the eye and i have a gap between the spring eye and the mount. What should I used to secure that or is it fine to have them loose?

    MDFishermen 16' 1985 Bass Tracker V16 Mod

    Performance wise I love my Yamaha. Did have much problems with the merc which was a 25hp. I switched to a 15hp four stroke and it still moves the boat quite fast with 2 people and gear. Big plus is the 4 stroke Yamaha is spooling quite that I cab talk to my buddy while running the motor at it...

    1987 Bass Tracker V16 SC Guide Special Rebuild

    Like he said I have ab 85 tracker v-16 and transom gets bad(from all three of the trackers I've seen like mine the wood in them seemed to pit the aluminum a little.). I love my tracker and there older boats are built fairly well. I was lucky to not have poured foam in it. They just used layers...

    1988 Tracker V-16

    I think it would make a better seal coating everything after its glued because the spar urethane could peal off the woos if it does that plus its a waste of spar urethane due to the middle would not be exposed to water.
