Photo 6 - On some boats, you may find it necessary to grind a relief for the stainless steel bracket that goes on the stator - this is to give yourself clearance for the RAM. Notice that when you tighten the bolts the bracket wants to push up. If it does this, you will want to grind a relief on the bottom on the stainless steel bracket so it fits properly.
