Installation Guide
- Tilt your outboard engine to the uppermost position to fully extend the trim/tilt ram.
- Firmly slide the wedge-style transom saver onto the exposed single hydraulic ram. Ensure a snug fit.
- Slowly lower the engine until it rests securely on the transom saver, applying light pressure. Do not apply excessive force.
- Once the motor is supported, install the two included steering stop clips onto the hydraulic steering rams on either side of the motor. This prevents the engine from turning during transit.
- Before launching your boat, remember to raise the motor and remove both the transom saver and the steering clips.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this fits my engine?
This support is designed for outboards with a single-ram power trim and tilt system. It is broadly compatible with Mercury (15-200 HP 4-stroke), Yamaha (9-90 HP 4-stroke and F115LB), and single-ram models from Honda, Suzuki, and Evinrude/Johnson. The key is to verify your engine has only one hydraulic ram for its tilt/trim function.
What is the difference between this wedge-style saver and a traditional trailer-mounted bar?
This wedge-style saver works by transferring the engine's weight and road shock through the existing trim/tilt system, effectively using the engine's own bracket to absorb stress. A traditional bar transfers this stress to the boat trailer's crossbar, which some users prefer to avoid potential stress on the transom itself. This model stabilizes the motor without needing a connection to the trailer.
What is the material and is it durable?
The support is made of high-density EPDM rubber encased in a PVC shell. EPDM rubber is known for its excellent resistance to UV rays, ozone, and high temperatures, ensuring it will not mar the hydraulic ram and will withstand the harsh marine environment.
