    Stinger Question

    Hi, I have a prop shaft that comes directly through the transom no tube under the boat etc. and the tube has two ball joint turnbuckle type parts that fit one on each side to keep the shaft alligned. Well one of those turnbuckles came of and was lost. I did not build the boat and thusfar have been unable to locate the replacement parts. Can anyone help me find the manufacture of the turnbuckle defices as I looke dat the vendors I know of with no luck.

            He wants a U-joint not a turn buckle. Need to know shaft Diameters to help.

                  That looks like a real PITA to setup.

                        The only manuf. I know that makes anyhting like that is MHZ-USA. It looks similar to a trimax. Looks like you need one of the transom mounts and the turnbuckle with ball joints

                            Have any pictures of the setup inside of the hull ?
                            It may be cheaper and better to just put a standard stinger on it.
                            Did you ever get to run the boat, If so how did it handle and run ?

                              The setup on the inside is just a bolt through the transom to the hardware on the outside. I do not have any pictures of the inside. I have run the boat many times and it runs very well and handles just great. I really want to find a replacement part to return to the original design as it ran so well and handled so great.

                              Thanks for the input
