Now the tabs are installed, pump mounted, and the tubes connected.
Next the switch and wiring, then done. Slow installation.......like turtle

I had M120's on my V, probably the best mod you can do. Congrats.

1. Tabs: All checks out so I've moved on to the rest of my projects.
2. GPS: New power cord for the standard horizon GPS / Plotter fixed that problem.
3. Digital antenna: installed
4. Gunnel rod holders - port and starboard - fixed where the plastic had cracked at the corner.
5. Replaced raw water wash down fitting
More to follow.........

It was a pain to get my tabs bled! they ended up bleeding out by use so make sure you keep eye on the tank for a bit to keep filling up when low, after they are set i have not used a drop of fluid in 3 years!

Good post BGreene. Congrats on the tabs.

I'm about to buy and install M120's on my Hydra. For me, it's a pricey modification, but I've heard so many good things about them, I feel compelled to go for it.

Any pics of your install?

I can take a few pics - I'm not quick at these sort of installations and I took my time doing it...... to try to do it right the 1st time. Now I can say it's quite straight forward, nothing particularly tricky. Follow the written directions and also refer the installation video Bennett Tabs has on the internet. Finally - there's a guy named Tom from Bennett that lurks the Hull Truth web site, extremely helpful.
