[QUOTE="Hotpickle, post: 447978, member: 21012"] Alright so today after half a dozen broken drill bits, I managed to get the old rotten transom off. When I replace it, I wanna thicken up the back plate to support the 40. It was originally 1/4" plywood. Is it enough if I go to 1/2"? Or should I go to 3/4"? Also, I want to rig up some sort of power trim or jack plate, can be a manually pumped unit so i can easily trim the motor in shallow water and not have to run to the back. I've googled arlund a bit.... Has anyone here done it before? I'm not interested in spending double what I paid for the motor on a cmc unit. I'm sorry my pictures are getting rotated I'm not sure what's going on [/QUOTE]
