Trying to build the prop brace that some trailers had and don't have one to look at. See pic and asking should the bottom of brace be at the 6" or 8" from ground??

That’s about the same clearance my trailer has. I welded some steel rollers on the bottom cross member so that the prop cage didn’t simply drag on the ground when going over dips, gutters, etc. JQ ------------- Current 2003 Ski Nautique 206 Limited Previous 2001 Ski Nautique Open Bow 1994 Ski Nautique Open Bow Aqua skiing, ergo sum |

John, There are other trailers that are a lot lower than the 6". You made a good choice. Still plenty of clearance at the prop. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |
