[QUOTE="Ray Clark, post: 507676, member: 31103"] Here's how my TM is mounted on the front of my Lund. Not exactly the same configuration as yours, but perhaps might give you an idea how you can tackle the job. [ATTACH type="full"]118116[/ATTACH] The 3/4 inch ply attached to the gunwales is the basic platform, and underneath that ply is a storage area for the foot pedal and cabling needed up front. I made a 3/4 ply mounting plate for the TM base because that standard TM "sliding base" mount did not provide sufficient clearance for my situation. That mounting plate supports the entire TM base. The ply mounting plate is attached to the deck with hex bolts into T-nuts. It provides convenient removal if needed. Underneath the deck ply, a stout piece of steel angle is mounted side-to-side to provide rigidity for the ply deck. It's rock solid. [/QUOTE]
