    Fortrex on ultrex mount

    I have made the plunge over to ultrex. My question is will my 45" fortrex fit in my 52" ultrex mount should the need arise?

    Yes it will, but it will sit further back on the base rest. It it will fit.

    Thank you for the reply, thinking of holding on to it for a while as a back up.

    Yes I was told no by everybody but I’ve had my ultrex quit twice and put my fortrex on. Just have to lower it all the way to stow it.

    Guys sometime get confused worse then women. Remember we are different species.
    The Fortrex will work on any Ultrex Mount. The Ultrex will not work on any of the Fortrex Mounts.

    If you put the 45" Fortrex on a 52" (long) mount, make sure when you stow it the motor is positioned on the motor rest. This means it will have to be lower all the way down, then will fit on the top/upper most portion of the rest.
