Well I finally got the CMC manual jack plate mounted. had to mill some clearance in it for the aluminum transom cap on my Charger. All went well after I made my engine puller device. I still think I will need either transom wedges or trim extenders to get more trim on my 85 Johny 150. These Chargers have a highly angled transom. Where to get the wedges at a good price? :)

Bmurray,<br />A few questions please.<br />Approx. how many holes (per side)are predrilled in the CMC?<br />They advertise 5.5" of vertical lift, is it?<br />Was there a tech support number? <br />Approx. how much does the unit weigh?<br />Have you run your boat with it yet?<br /><br />Maybe CMC has the additional peices you need?<br /><br />Thanks for your info.

3 on the transom side and 2 on the motor side. I think the weight is about 30 lbs. I belive it has a 5 1/2" setback with 5" adjustment.
