It fits a wide range of marine outboard engines with single ram tilt/trim systems, including models from Yamaha (30–115 HP, 2005–2024), Mercury (40–400 HP, 2005–2024), Suzuki (40–115 HP, 2010–2024), Tohatsu (40–60 HP, 2010–2024), Honda (40–60 HP, 2010–2024), and Johnson/Evinrude (25–130 HP, 2005–2020).

Troubleshooting & FAQ
What is the main purpose of this transom saver?
It absorbs shock and pressure exerted on your transom and engine's tilt/trim system during trailering, preventing potential long-term damage from road vibrations and impacts.
How do I know if it will fit my engine?
This support is designed for outboards with a single tilt/trim ram. Please check the "Engine & Model Compatibility" list. If your model is listed, it will fit.
What are the included blue clips for?
The two blue clips are steer stop stabilizers. They are placed on the hydraulic steering rams to prevent the engine from turning sideways during transit, providing additional stability.
Can this be used while the boat is in the water?
No, this device is designed exclusively for trailering. It must be removed before launching the boat and operating the engine.
Is this better than a traditional transom saver bar?
This style is more compact, easier to store, and often quicker to install. It works by transferring the engine's weight and stress to the motor's own framing, effectively stabilizing the motor without connecting to the trailer.
