[QUOTE="airshot, post: 498004, member: 1183"] Don't worry about moving your axle unless your tongue is very light, once you get the spare back on the trailer, that will add hitch weight, but yes, you need that trailer supporting the transom of your boat. One way to gage cav plate height is to run a straight edge against the bottom of the boat and let it stick out the back to the motor. Tilt the motor until the cav plate is parallel to the bottom of the boat...now measure...is the cav plate, above, below or right at the bottom of the boat ?? [/QUOTE]
