    Is it possible to turn a 45" fortrex to a 52"?

    Is this possible to transform a 45" fortrex to a 52" unit and what parts would be needed? If its an arm and a shaft, I figured it would be cheaper than selling mine and buying new. Just a thought.

    Sorry to say this but no. You have to change the mount also. 52" has a longer mount than a 45". You would be better suited to buy a new troll motor if you need a longer shaft.
