Re: outboard adjustment
ok so i tried jacking the motor up today to lessen the weight on the transom, loosened the transom bolts, (the bottom bracket bolts haven't been drilled out and fastened yet due to this issue) tried to pry the motor over a little but, but am weary about busting something...no go....took out the pivot bolt out and it looked good, both sides of the bracket where they touch at the pivot bolt are flush and look good.
i pulled the motor up and put my pickle fork between the bracket and motor, and it will pry over a bit, but i didn't want to force anything just incase....i have a port-a-power that i could shove in between and it will certainly bend it back, but like i said, dont want to break anything.
any suggestions? could something be that bent? nothing looks to be...
i dunno, gonna be a pain to trailer this engine if it rubs this bad (its already heavy enough)
thanks
