    Minn Kota MAXXUM Lift Assist

    Just thought I would post this again in case there are still some guys looking for an inexpensive DIY lift assist for the Minn Kota MAXXUM. Just download and print the attached PDF.

    i have not seen one so I looked at some pictures. It appears the plastic part on the bottom may get in the way but could not be sure from the picture.
    Suggest you look at the pic on the PDF showing the location of the lower pivot ball mounting. If it is in the clear, you should be ok.

    Same set up that I used on my 80# maxxum hand control. It works great. Should be pinned at top of page.

    Would this work on the 101 thrust models?

    I can’t say for sure, I had it on a 42 inch 80# and I would guess the weight of the motor on the 101# is about the same.
