Thanks bro. Up to 74 now and still going strong.

The skewers is a great idea. Thanks

Good to know... Thank YOU for sharing that tid-bit.

Darren, use a marine grade sealant like 3M www.amazon.com/3M-08019-Marine-Silicone-Sealant/dp/B000H8W9V8/ref=asc_df_B000H8W9V8?tag=bngsmtphsnus-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=80745502934316&hvnetw=s&hvqmt=e&hvbmt=be&hvdev=m&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=&hvtargid=pla-4584345030076043&psc=1 I didn’t use a torque wrench. Just hand tightened them.

Ok ty for the information n getting bck to me

My 2018 body is different from 2007. I can’t find a “Max Coverage” flare for your truck. It looks like it would be a Bushwacker Pocket Style. You’ll need to know the bed size as well. Hope it helps.

Thanks Dave. Any issues? I had to lengthen my front drive shaft 3/4” to remove a vibration in four wheel drive. Actually, it still vibrates a little.

@camomano2 Too soon to tell. So, far so...good!

Yes, the opposite side spacer is included with the bracket.

@@camomano2 thanks. I just decided to order the sandwich bracket for the other side as well. Figured I would just add it so I only need to pull the motor back once. Then if I ever want to add another talon, I’m all set.

@@pyrocrew13 I assume you’re doing this on a Tracker. Be advised that each one weights close to 80lbs. You’ll have motor, fuel, batteries and possibly another angler in the rear as well. See how it performs with one Talon. I’m actually going to change my prop in order to come up on plane faster. I’m not concerned about top speed as much. Today I can get to 35 mph with just me in the boat and 1/2 tank of fuel.

@@camomano2 yeah. Tracker 190 XT with 115 mercury. Just putting 1 talon on for now. Figured I would just add the second bracket just in case I wanted to add a second in the future.

That should be much easier. Don’t forget the plastic sealer step.

Thanks Mike. Good idea. Sounds like you’ve done it a few times.

Beyond my capabilities. Besides, I’m getting used to the 3:08 gear. I just run in 5th gear most of the time.

@@camomano2 I have to say I am impressed with your work!

@@mikedarrow3809 thanks bro

No, but I have used purple and black in low clear water. I also fish the upper Delaware for trout however, I haven’t made it up there this year.

The kit was purchased through Custom Offsets. www.customwheeloffset.com/store/suspension?sort=instock&year=2018&make=Chevrolet&model=Silverado%201500&drive=4WD&lift=7%22-9%22&brand=McGaughys&saleToggle=0&qdToggle=0

Great. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks man.

Dude, I did. I just did the easy pasy stuff.

3ton each

@@camomano2 I heard that if u get a 3 ton that would mean 1.5 ton is each jack stand that would make a total 3 ton. Is that what u have ? Or did did u mean u have 6 ton to make each stand 3 ton each ? I'm just want to be sure and safe.

@@losmoore3358 Each stand is rated at 3 tons

I used 4 stands

Be glad to help. Where are you having problems?

Jasen, my Motor Guide holes did not match the Ghost so I just put it where I wanted it. I believe Lowrance calls for 1” off the bow and, as you mentioned, position the head inside the rails. I do have some exposed holes. You can get plastic plugs to fill them or be lazy like me and place a decal over them. Actually, I believe there’s only one. I’m willing to take some updated photos of the positioning if you like. Let me know Thanks Tom

@@camomano2 I have seen another video of someone installing a ghost on a boat exactly like yours and his motor head looks like its sticks past boat. Yours doesn’t. I was curious if you could send pics of the front over hang. The only way I can get mine head unit to line up inside is to have the front of mount not be 100 percent parallel with the curve to the bow. Hopefully that makes sense. Maybe you could take a couple pics from the front downward angle so I can relate the angle. Thank you for the quick response and pics would be helpful.

Jasen, send me your email. Trumore@ptd.net

@@camomano2 DONE let me know if something went wrong.I will send again. Thank you.

@@jasenwestcott740 didn’t get it. Send it to my email at trumore@ptd.net.

Thank Robert, you probably right. That was my first go around. However, I don’t see me doing another.

Michael, it’s a 2016 that I purchased in March of 2017.

Awesome Rob. Good luck.

No paint problems. However, under the flares there is a rub line on my truck paint. I take them off for cleaning ever spring and I noticed it after one year. I reinstalled them with a light coat of oil on the vinyl gasket. I’m hoping that minimizes the problem.

@@camomano2 thank you I’m repainting mines tomorrow

Put 3m clear tape or double sided tape where the fender flare meets the body and it shouldn’t leave any lines. Installed mine about 8 months ago took them off and no damage to paint 👍

Thanks Jose’

High Mark, it’s routed along the side in the gray conduit.

You an see it on part 2 near the end of the video.

Well Karl, I have a Talon on my starboard side. I’m not sure why the motor cables are a problem for you. On my port side, I have a bracket for a 7.5Hp mercury engine. ( however, I don’t trailer with it mounted)

thanks Tom, I appreciate you input... I decided to send the additional trolling motor back, and invest in some good lithium batteries for my fortex...now I should be able fish all day...

@@karlstevens6006 I’m in the Northeast. Where are you located?

Thanks Derrick

Thanks

They are rock solid. I haven’t had any issues.

Thanks, but as Ricky mentioned below, I didn’t use the 3M tape and the flares are leaving a mark on the paint. I rrr we move them once a year to clean and wax but it still marks. Can’t buff out either. I would have to wet sand to get it clean again.

Actually, it's a 374 and mine was still made in Germany. Not sure how old it is.

@@camomano2 After all this time... do you still like this Meat Slicer?

@@judichristopher4604 Yes, I’ve had no issues with it.

I’ve had it out two times. No problems with the antenna position. The anchor feature works great. The power is awesome. I had it set at “7” and When I turned it, almost knocked me out of the boat. I’m still getting used to it’s turning sensitivity. Yesterday I was fishing in a 15 to 20 mph wind and used anchoring for 4 hours and saw no loss of power at the end of the trip. You’ll love it. Thanks Tom

@@camomano2 thank you so much!!

InstaBlaster.

That’s good information. Thanks

Joakim, it's 47". Do you have a bass style boat or a "V" bottom. 52" should be fine for a "V" bottom boat.

@@camomano2 i got a 175 txw. My lake im fishing in is tough With waves and dont want it to be over the water

@@joakim8937 Send me your email address and I'll send you pictures of the motor deployed. I think 52" is overkill. These pictures should help you decide.

My email is trumore@ptd.net

Thanks. Still haven't figured what to do with the other half.

Shawn, the fish commission says they stocked the lake on March 9th for the April 3rd opening. I can’t confirm that but if you go over there, I’m sure you’ll be able to see some swimming around.

Yes, it's a pain but I don't like using anything that's thats non-glass

@@camomano2 weird

@@camomano2 Truthfully... I feel the same way... I have had a restaurant... Bar-B-Q Stand... and now seriously thinking about doing Beef Jerky again. PLASTIC is Toxic... not for cold foods as much... but especially when you HEAT it up. Example: I was having stomach problems... every day. and someone noticed I did NOT use a real spoon to stir my HOT coffee every day... I used a Plastic Spoon to Stir my HOT Coffee. I was advised NOT to use a Plastic Spoon for seriously HOT things, because the residue from the plastic would seep in my HOT Coffee. I didn't think it would make THAT much of a difference... IT DID... Instantly I saw a difference and the Taste of my coffee was better. I do use FREEZER BAGS... COLD... but nothing plastic when it's hot. My stomach problems went away in a few days. I also NEVER cook Anything in Aluminum Pots... both of my parents and grandparents had nerve damage cooking in Aluminum. I only use Aluminum Foil... on Top of a pan (hot), not touching the meat... Parchment paper for wrapping.

@@Getitstraightyo That is rude to call someone Weird, just because you're ignorant of WHY some of us do not like to use anything but glass... READ my comment below...

@@camomano2 I also do NOT use Plastic utensils, to stir food while cooking .. Wood, or steel.

I purchased the wheels and tires from Custom Offsets in the Midwest. They were balanced and ready to go. Came shrink wrapped on a skid in a box truck.

No like after lift was put on how did you manage to get the truck high enough off to put the tires on

6 6x6 blocks (3 side by side) under the jack stands. Hope I never get a flat.

the 800 grit for dry sanding after priming: www.amazon.com/3M-5PK-800G-Auto-Sandpaper/dp/B00IQ2SAK6/ref=sr_1_177?crid=T4W8XLCIDZUU&keywords=3m+auto+sandpaper&qid=1571770231&sprefix=3m+auto+san%2Caps%2C149&sr=8-177 For sanding before painting, any wet/dry sandpaper will do at 400 grit.
