whats the difference between fluid motor mounts & regular stringer mounted mounts?
there's a boat with fluid mounts mounts attached, 1989 sea ray 19' this whole boat is an abortion & I am sorry i ever set eyes on it.
the mount posts are resting on the exhaust manifold 3/4" elbows underneath. i bought the regular mounts, i have seen on every other merc around & want to swap them, yes, both sides and motor bracket and stringer mount.
however the bolt spacing were they attach to the stringer is closer than the fluid mount spacing so i will have to drill new holes in the stringer.
i am guessing i need to fit the engine in place & use the alignment tool on it 1st before i drill new holes but man i just keep getting beaten up by this boat.
