ok so heres what I got 3 blade prop the reverse plate is there it don't come off the shaft housing is cone shaped and compared to the old one the reverse is great, the handle is a different shape, has an oil cooler, seems quieter but ive been running a go devil for 5 years so it might just be me.
the motor runs great and haven't had a problem yet. will try to post some pics this weekend, one more thought I got an older manual and it says to bend the skeg to adjust motor pull aint happening its 1/2 to 3/4 in thick at the end just thought id end the conspiracy. love the guys at gator tail they were extremely helpful

Big pipe wrench will handle bending the tab

The new LU doesn't have a torque tab.

It's built in

It doesn't need a cut tab...bend the whole skeg end...... I did it the hard way and cut a tab....

al I know is its thick as heck compared to the old one and kinda has flare in it so I don't want to mess it all up

It is a cast lower unit! Please do not try and bend the end.

Took it for a short run tonight and heres a pic of the lower and no I wasn't planing on bending it I was thinking about making a wedge to give it a little more push

what rig you running it on? you may have to play with the load in the boat moving stuff around till you find where it runs right

Looks like a Gator Trax.

Looks soon to be obsolete.

Cast.... I wasn't thinking.... make a wedge like on a prodrive...

^i been gone a while, what I miss?

its also a 2015 gator trax it has the new hunt deck its 18ft with the hunt deck and it has the stretched rake a bowfishing deck with 4 mtl hal lights its heavy and hard to turn but runs 30 but I just run it around 2800 rpm most of the time Iv orderd some sealights in an effort to lose some weight
