Installing a Motor Mate 250 SHO

Trying to install a motor mate on my 2017 SHO. I got the bolt loose on the starboard side and installed the bracket. I could not get the bolt out on the port side. It turns, but will not come out. I tightened the starboard side down hoping that would help, but it just loosened off when trying to get the port side out. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I just installed one the other day on a 2013 SHO and I put a wrench on one side and used a socket on the other. both sides came off without issue once the wrench wedged against the jack plate.

Thanks. I will give that a try.

I just got a MotoStop. Didn't need to take anything loose. Sent the Motor Mate back.

Had same problem on my 16, did one side and put lock tite on it. next night nocked the other side loose tapped the wrench with a hammer and it came free. I tried for days before I did this to get it free

Yep, had the same issue. Put a wrench or socket on the nut and hit it with a hammer and it will loosen up

Quick hit on the end of the wrench that's on the bolt or a air ratchet will work. I have been down this same path before.

Same problem 2 weeks ago on my 200. Battery impact took it right off.

Battery powered impact gun took it right off after suffering through the same shit as you are
