Just had a 225hp G2 installed on a Ranger 520. Will this motor stay straight while being towed down the road? I have Talons on each side of the motor and I don't want the motor rubbing against the Talons while going down the interstate.

Not without the optional trailering bracket...

This works like a charm on mine, made by T&H Marine. Your engine stays straight as an arrowOriginally Posted by Evinrude57

I think you have to use a standard factory transom support brace for the 150. I don't believe the one pictured above will work for your model. I contacted the guy that makes that bracket for Evinrude and he said that it only works for the 225-300 HP G2 motors.
If anyone is looking for the support bracket pictured above, you can order it directly from the guy that makes them. Ebay. 90 bucks.

Do you have the DPS system or the standard steering system.
.
repowered from merc and kept sea star steering The h bracket only works on 225 and up I use the support brace but still moves side to side when trailering had sea star bled but no difference nobody at evinrude can give e nanswe
I'm in the same boat with my 115 HO. No bracket made for it. I'm back to using a trailer Pogo stick for now.
Old Motor mate yoke was smaller and lock'n'haul has nothing to brace against.
Kinda stuck with it since I just have NFB steering. Nothing to lock steering with. Nothing to bungee the steering wheel to without scratching paint or console.
OK let me ask so even I understand, did you keep the seastar HC5345 steering cylinder mounted to the engine? OR did you purchase the optional power steering system. If you have the traditional Seastar steering you could use the clips that slip over the steering ram.

Don't you have a G1?
Yes I do.
Why not use the factory bracket and the clips from TH marine?
NFB is cable steering.....I do believe MotorMate will work with the G1...right Fred?
i use a motormate with my 2017 G1 150HO and it works great!
I have a motor mate. It doesn't fit the yoke in a G1 115 HO. The lower unit is bigger.
It may be because of the 2.36 gear case?
Motormate 10-101-ss shows to fit your ETEC. Didn't realize you had NFB.
That's the model Motor mate I have. The yoke is not wide or deep enough. I emailed them and they confirmed no model available for my motor.
I liked the Motor mate a lot. I may take it to a welder in the off season and have them make it work.
So I have a 2017 150HO G2 and I am using an Atwood transom saver that wedges on the lower unit and extends to the center roller (I would call it a traditional version). I was sent home with this from the Ranger dealer. Should I be using something else or is this ok?
