while we're on the topic, any of you guys w/ kicker motors have some good info on the bracket used?.....good ones, not so good ones, stainless steel vs. aluminium, fixed vs. adjustable etc. etc. I have a newly acquired 1996 8hp 20" Johnson 2cyl. [that I got for free] a few months ago. My two projects, that I have yet to start on either, are to lower my bow rail and mount the kicker. I think the kicker project has priority at this time. Any input is appreciated, thanks.

Phes just get a decent quality stainless that lets you raise it out of the water. they are rated by horsepower, mostly for weight purposes.
My G3 has a cast stainless fixed type put on by the dealer, mount height based on shaft length and clearance, very solid, has enough height to keep it out of the water.

I've seen a few "Garilick"[?] products and looked at a few on Ebay. I'm more inclined to go bran new unless I stumble across a deal I can't refuse. It seems that the adjustable ones are the way to go....5 different hi/lo settings. Even saw one were the bracket comes off the mount [I like that idea as well] Considering what the 8hp has cost me, I'm not afraid to lay out a few extra bucks on a good bracket. Thanks ,Will
