Now heres the left side motor mount, check that spacing, it always slide on that side.http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u...oatpics069.jpg
What do you think of putting a sleve over the slide bracket, cut the perfect distance between stringer mount and where it starts to slide in slide mount. This way if it pulls tight again the new sleve will stop it.

Are those mounts solid,(holes egged out) or are they designed to slide?
Darrell.
If they are designed to slide, just adjust them to the correct alignment and weld those babies solid. Never have to adjust them again.

Those mounts look like they would stress the stringer. Junk them for a rail kit.
Good Idea my other brother darrell, But yes they move or slide. All bring another pic aboard...
Your mounts are similar to mine but I have a 3 point mount set up, is the back of your motor(bellhousing) attached to the pump. I'm bettin its not. http://www.***boat.com/ubb/graemlins/idea_2.gif
Yes the rear of the motor is supported by the jet, and the fronts a 4 points with slides its all one piece that run under the pan.. here is another shothttp://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u25/boatgonewild/Randysboatpics074.jpg
