[QUOTE="Weldorthemagnificent, post: 449272, member: 22139"] As far as your problem, if you don’t want to weld it. Take the bolts out and get a piece of 1/8 aluminum and bend it to fit over the brace using a vice and hammer. Drill through and rebolt. If you can’t get your transom saver to work for you, here’s what I do: When trailering I tilt the motor forward and put a 1” ratchet strap around the motor and pull it forward. I hook the ends to the trailer farther forward. I crank it pretty tight taking the weight of the motor and the bounce out of the equation. Old 1970’s 16’ Naden with a Johnson 35. I regularly tow it 5 hours or more on trips down the damndest roads. Transom is good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
