Guys
If you are getting one or have one with a Yamaha 300 and kicker, the steer bar/cable tie is shipping from the factory with the engines misaligned.
There is no fix or recall and I had to have a metal bracket created to make them align better.
Of course I was the only boat that has ever seen this via Ranger though my authorized Ranger Mechanic had been on the phone with Ranger engineers for weeks trying to figure out a fix.
Cheers
Jake
Hey Jake, do you think you could maybe post a picture that shows the problem area you've outline? I'm having trouble picturing it. I think the shift lever angle bracket on the T9.9 is way too long on Jerry's boat, but that's a function of the length of the cable end. But I don't see why Ranger wouldn't just ship the boat with a flexible steering tie. Maybe I'm not picturing it correctly though, so I'd love to see a picture of what you're talking about. My Angler 2080 has a flexible tie between the F225 and T9.9. But it's a 2015 though... |
