You hit the nail on the head for me...even well balanced objects are gonna rock back and forth and long trips add up to a lotta rockin''...mine braces off the trailer and stabilizes all that front to back action goin' down the highway...I'm just takin' it easy on a 35 year old transom...
...just towed mine to beach and back (5 1/2 hours each way) ...Hwy 9, no Interstate and it's largely a pretty nice drive, but there ARE some DIP-DE-DOOS along the way...
...
And think about this...they're probably as well balanced as they CAN be, but I don't want any body parts in the way when a system fails and that lower unit starts findin' the ground...LOL!!...
