Ultrex turns two years old

[hookbender]

My Ultrex turns two next week, I've had it for 23 months with no issues.
Should it be removed and let the trolling motor shop I bought it from go through it?

Why?

[krindgen]

I've cause myself lots of problems with this line of thinking. Just saying. I would look it over myself, maybe take some things apart, clean it, and keep going. I remember how I stimulated some aggravation years ago when I just had to do some maintenance (later proven to be unnecessary) on those Ranger COOL hubs. My saying, if it ain't broken, don't break it.

Saw on here couple months ago that Minn Koto are giving another year of warrany making three years now.

Yes, you have a 3yr warranty. If nothings wrong, I would keep running it, but would look at the mount pivots and make sure the bushings are still OK

[hookbender]

Why? Just thought that some of the components have been changed from a few posts I've seen.
It ain't broke, true, my experience has been great with it so far.
Nice of MK to throw in another year, hope I don't have to use it for a break down.
Not sure where or what or where mount pivots and bushing are, is this what the main carriage pivots on to lower and fold back on the deck?

The Pivots are on both sides of the mount, yes, where it pivots. Remove the side plates and you can get access to them. Some of the problems with the first units was steering cables and steering pressure control board. Depending on when yours was manufactured would depend on if these parts needs changed.
