i had a swimplatform installed on my 2006 gx 185 and the outdrive will hit the bottom of the platform when trimming up. i contacted swimplatforms.com to see what others do in this situation and they sent me a couple of these trim spacer kits (Mercury Quicksilver 15768A3 Boat Spacer Trim Kit). it looks like a pretty straight forward install but i thought i would check with the experts here. it looks like i need to get a spanner wrench for the cylinder and just clip these things to the shaft. I guess i could support the outdrive with a piece of 2x4 on the ground under it or something. let me know if this sounds about right or if it is more involved than that. thanks for your help!!!!
