They are installing concrete panels on the Launch Ramp. Good traction, No holes in the wood and no metal grate coming apart. Glad they did it.

Re: HELP ! How to diagram of puck Wire Along Motor Guide Sha

Put the loop where the bearing is. The seam where the larger tube fits into the smaller and rotates. Tip: Don't tighten down the wire or you will fracture the coax and get bad signals.

John C. it was called Rons Tackle owned by Ron Newcomb. John Caulfield is correct on the SJ store. 2 brothers owned the store before Gordie owned it. That was one of the first places I used to by fesshn stuff. I do remember you were a fishing Rep in those days.

Re: Alignment for Bote Trailers.

Checked Bearings and tire pressure. I even swapped tires and the wear was on the one side. Even took the advice of a Texarkana friend who suggested I take a measurement from center point of coupler to axle.
No sweat, I found a place in San Leandro that can realign straight axles. Thanks.

Re: Motorguide trolling motor clunk?

On the shaft there is a collar. They get loose and cause the "clunk". You will need to lower it. The collar takes a allen wrench. Loosen it, carefull not to lose an bearings. haha ! Pull down on the lower unit and push up on the collar and tighten...good luck.

What you can do is sandwich it between some 2x4's and clamps. Turn em slowly. Or.... Take a 4/6 place it behind the bend use a rubber mallet straightening tool...
