[QUOTE="kflavin, post: 510939, member: 35139"] So, yes that height will be the goal of the transom rebuild. If I can get the height I need, I'll leave the jack plate off, and have the tiller arm in a better location. Also in the mix is transom angle. Right now it is 15deg. 15 deg requires that I use the last locked down trim hole on the engine bracket. If I trim up any more (manual) I'd have to use the unlocked trim notches in the motor bracket, and wouldn't be able to reverse the engine without it popping up. So Im thinking about 10 deg mount wedges to leave a hole or two available for locked down trimmed up positions. [/QUOTE]
