Will It Fit My Motor?
 
Don't see a picture of your motor anywhere?  

The Lock-n-Haul® works the same way on all motors. Send us pictures of your motor like the  ones below, and we'll help you figure it out.

Attach pictures and text to 817-771-4057, OR email to sales@lock-n-haul.com

 
IMPORTANT

The Lock-n-Haul®fits all brands and most models and sizes of outboard motors, provided that they have the three key design features generally described on this page. 
 
Your motor might not look like the examples below, but the way the device fits up the same way.
 
The Lock-n-Haul®employs a patented 4-point inline load design, that connects two of four points with the lower motor mount flange bolts, located on the lower unit just above the cavitation plate at the bottom of the steering pin, and two points connect to the transom motor mount bolted to the boats transom.
 
Outboard motor manufacturers have many different designs, even in same year and same size and make, so the best policy is to check your particular motor and verify that it has the features described below.

 
Three features are necessary to install the Lock-n-Haul® on your outboard motor.
       
1)  Power outboard motor tilt system
2)  Accessible (lower motor mount) steering pivot rod flange bolt heads
3)  Transom motor mount indents/concaves/cradle

*** Long shaft (offshore) motors with 25"-30"shafts ***
See picture at bottom of this page and compare to your motor.

The Lock-n-Haul on a long shaft motor
 
The Lock-n-Haul®  is 13" long.  The ends are 1" (7/8" for Evinrude/Johnson) diameter and the tubes are 3/4" diameter.  Tilt your motor until you have 13" between the lower motor mount flange bolt heads, and the indents/concaves/brackets on the transom mounting bracket.  If you can put a 3/4" diameter tube between them then it will work on your motor.

You can also use the picture above as a quick reference.  Basically the flange bolt heads and the motor mount features need to line up when the motor is vertical.
