[QUOTE="Jimbeau, post: 491313, member: 31884"] Just finished a full trailer rework and hung a new 20hp. Question is how much clearance should the foot of the motor have from the ground? I’ve got just over 8 inches clearance with it the down position. The axle (with 12” wheels) has over 9” of clearance so maybe that’s normal, just seems low. It’s probably not a good idea to tilt the motor up for trailering? If I need more clearance I could go with 13” wheels, or make taller bunks somehow. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
