Skeg Guard for Mercury V8 Pro XS 4.8-Inch TorqueMaster
The JLM Marine model 1923 is a stainless steel, bolt-on skeg protector for selected Mercury 4.6L V8 Pro XS TorqueMaster lower units. It fits over the skeg below the lower unit to help limit wear. A damaged skeg must retain enough sound material to support the guard and its mounting hardware.
Check Before Ordering
For the listed 4.6L V8 Pro XS TorqueMaster with a 4.8-inch gearcase; check the 20-inch shaft application. Not a universal Mercury V8 guard. Do not substitute for the 5.44-inch gearcase or the 3.4L V6.
Ask JLM Marine for a model-specific profile or dimension check before purchase. Gallery photos showing a different engraved model number do not confirm the contour or accessory contents of this model; request a photo of the matching model.
Reference-Specific Application Guide
The following entries describe the reference manufacturers’ applications. They help identify a candidate; they are not a physical fit test of your lower unit. Do not combine two reference tables into a universal fitment claim. Confirm the engine model suffix, model year, shaft length, gearcase and skeg profile.
Reference 27412
Selected entries from the manufacturer’s current model finder, checked October 7, 2026. Only the years shown are listed; omitted applications require a separate check.

Construction & Package
One stainless steel skeg guard. The listing identifies this as a mounting-hardware kit; confirm the current hardware pack with JLM Marine if bolt sizes, tools or a drill bit are required. Shared gallery photos should not be used as a model-specific packing list.
Before Installation
- Keep the engine off and the boat secure. Follow the engine and kit instructions.
- Check the guard profile, seating and mounting position before drilling. Do not force a mismatched guard into place.
- Use the drilling size, fasteners and tightening procedure specified for the actual kit; generic instructions may not apply.
- Do not install on a cracked gearcase or a skeg with insufficient sound material. Ask a qualified marine technician if damage or fit is uncertain.
This guard does not guarantee protection from collisions, restore a structurally damaged lower unit or guarantee improved steering or speed.
