[QUOTE="rook, post: 142005, member: 3076"] Gonna try and hang the motor tonight if I can get some help. Got my hands on a old jack plate that was in rough shape. Was able to salvage half of it and make the other half out of 4" Alum L-bracket. Gonna be about a 6" backset so should get the prop into a little "cleaner" water. The boat had a plywood backing plate between the motor and the transom. With the jack plate I decided to go back with a 3/16" alum plate instead. Sealed up all the old holes with 5200 and got it installed last night. Now if I can get the motor hung then I can move on to getting the center console fabricated and get this thing put back together.
