ok - I'm having to do some changing on my pig ! I'm going to eliminate the old rubber mount ( floating ) mounts and want to mount it solid - what type of plate do you prefer ? this is a lake boat and that's all it will ever be ! so I'm thinking about stainless - since i only have the original mounting (4") flange with four mounting holes so i'm thinking 3/8 plates ??? any input :idea: if any have done this post pics !
