I am also curious to know whether I should have a mount that lifts the motor when not in use, or one that is in a fixed position. Which is the best solution to my problem....thanks all, your a great help....oh yeah, and how do you install this through the transom?

Thanks.
Patrick

The kick down bracket's are great and you can get the right height you want . Do a search on e-bay for kicker brackets !

How do you measure to fit your kicker?
