 Re: mud motor shaft not running on angle
it needs a skeg that is angled to offset the torque. Most surface drives have them. I would strongly suggest having one fabbed for your motor, it will help the torque and protect your prop a lot better.

Had one on it. I thought maybe it was mounted wrong,so I removed it to see what would happen. It did the same thing.

 Re: mud motor shaft not running on angle
put skeg back on so you can bend tab to off set torque....I also off set my motor about 1.5", damn near drives itself now and Im thinking about getting cruise control
