I thought there was wood in there, haven`t taken it apart thou.

Some of the screws at the bottom .. whetever they screw into.. i thought wood.. are stripped. When it goes up it`s all lopsided.
Side with lift goes up quite a bit before the other side follows. Any remedies?

Install a gas shock on the side that lags behind.

Put the lift in the middle if only one lift.

Easier said than done with a single engine.

yea, the actuator is on the starb. side and when it goes up the port side is about 3 to 4 inches lower.

Heres the pic.

the shock is fine.. pretty strong actually, I had a hard time pushing it back down.

And yes theres no wood in there now that I took if off and saw underneath.
The lift bends the fiberglass base and overtime that strips the screws attached to the starboard. There is a piece of that starboard stuff thats broken.. I`ll have to figure out a way to fix that.

btw, Addiction were you the one that posted the pics of your interior? you had some things powdercoated? Am I remembering right?
I`m sending the rails and grab handles out.. would like other ideas, thanx

Why don't you install a pair of new actuators, one on each side. That's how Sonic does their single engine models.
