WTB Proboat Mystic Strut

[lenny]

Hey Darin,
Where can I get the bushing to do that to mine ?
Also any trick to fix the sloppy rudder on it as well ?


Thanks for any info on it.

I am definitely replacing my stuffing tube only decision remaining is Teflon or no Teflon. I can see it now I bore a proboat strut out to fit the octura bushings then get in a wreck and the stuffing tube gets damaged then It is difficult to find the right size of tubing.
Gonna fix it correctly the first time

Jim, if you can make it work with the Speedmaster strut, you'll be happier. The bearing material in the stock struts doesn't hold up very well, and is a little sloppy.

That said, I bore my stock struts out to .250" and install Lead-Teflon bushings, and then the world is all good! :) Pretty simple to do and everything else fits as designed....
