sorry about the late post havent been on the net in a while
as for the bolt no i cant get it out or move it, it is bent right underneath the nut on the bottom of the plate. but after all i dont think i will have to move it the jackplate is up about 1 1/2 inches and im playing with props 25 and 27 yamahas. another problem my rpm gauge is not reading correct, idles right 750-800 when i take off shoots up and stays up
