Hi there. Our tilt 'pin' thing just broke on us. By the looks of it, one side of the tilt bracket has been busted off for years, as there is rust on the stub. The other side is now bent and won't stay in the groove.

I took photos...they are here:http://picasaweb.google.ca/ryanmitton/Yamaha20HPTiltBrokenRecommededFix

I was wondering if you guys know if it's possible to order that bracket part for the tilt, and if so...how on earth do you pull the old one out and put the new one in? There is no screw head anywhere and doesn't look like the hinge pin thing is threaded.

Or, do we just take it to a local welder and get them to weld on some new-re-enforced pins?

Your thoughts?

Check the photos out..they show the story.

Cheers,
Ryan.
