Always a best practice to check what posts the replier has made in the forum. If there message count is low and there is no substance to the replies, odds are a scammer has you in their sites.

I gathered that. I'm just making the point that I have personally experienced on more than one occasion when a connection looked good and wasn't. He could put everything back together and have another issue the next trip out. When it comes to 12v systems cleaning terminals should be an automatic...

My only advice with the steering issue is that I have seen many a case where electrical connections "look" good but aren't. Looks like that paid off for you here. I have seen where slight discoloration on a battery terminal caused issues. My only other comment is starting out of water. In case...

Hookup, what is the 2nd photo showing?

The 3.3's were sold in 2 versions. The 225 did not have variable cam timing. The 250 does. My guess is the 225 had a 2 stage intake runner and the 250 with the vct didn't need it. I also went through this on the 4 cylinders Suzuki df ap's. All valve train part numbers were different from 150 to...

Chrisk, The 4.2 f250 is the same engine as the f300. ECU fuel and ignition mapping are the only differences. With Nizpro they raise the rev limiter several hundred rpm's while also tuning for more power across the entire rev range. As stated by another member, the 4.2 225 and 250 will benefit...

As for the overnighting, I would check the birth sizes and headroom. If you are tall, the 258 will enable you to convert the entire cabin into sleeping space. I'm 6'1" and had no problem stretching out. However, the height of the cabin was only 5' 9" ish. I don't have personal experience with...

Ill have to add this to my to-do list. The slop in the existing system is probably more of a quality "feel" issue than an actual problem, but it is annoying never the less. I could probably live with it if I could get the squeaking to stop, but it is tough to lube the noisy parts. If my engines...

Looks like you have done your homework and know what is out there. I get it. Some have time and no money. Others have money and no time. If you are lucky you have both and can shop. In your case the money is well spent to save time. Keep us posted on the new Hondas. I've owned a lot of their...

Where are you located? Shopping for DF200's in my neck of the woods proved that there were only a couple dealers that are really interested in repowers. The ones that weren't were easy to spot because their quotes were more in line with Merc or Yamaha. Looks like the dealer you priced for Zukes...

I can't recall anyone on here repowering a Marlin with twin Honda 250's. However, performance will likely be very similar to the older 3.3 f250's. Email Grady and they will be able to send you a performance report with f250's.

Did you tie off to the center or elsewhere? I've seen crossbars cracked at the welds. Likely a weld issue, but thought a "Y" off the verticals would eliminate that concern. How many people do you pull in a tube and how big are they. My kids aren't so kid like anymore!

I would agree it is a non issue for a skier or a wakeboarder as long as you are not pulling from the center of the rear crossbar. I would "Y" from the top of the rear vertical supports. 2-3 kids on a tube - I'm going off the rear d-rings with my "Y" harness.

According to the article you provided, as long as you are doing this for recreational purposes you are exempt. Get paid $1 and you will need a CDL if your truck's GCWR exceeds 26k for your trailer weight. According to the article, no 3/4 ton trucks have a GCWR over 26k.

You need to add Alexis to that list also.

Or "randyjudy" is the ebay of the boat forum!:D According to all of Alexis's posts "randyjudy" has one of everything on the for sale page! 100% safe to say Alexis and Randy are scammers.

Congrats on the win. Why did you need to remove it?

Will it "work"? Yes. Is it a good idea? No. The added length of the shaft puts more "leverage" on the transom. More than it was designed for. Props throw water backwards, but also radially. Burying the props will hurt efficiency because prop will have more pressure above it. As someone else...

Most boat trailers are not designed for a weight distributing hitch. The tag on the hitch is based on the SAE towing standard that the truck was designed around. Travel trailers need the wdh for better stability with cross winds and because it is more difficult to control the tongue weight. Once...
