where is your video
not shore aboutde winder shock absorbers? i have full hyr. steering . mine move side to side thats because the boat is out of the water too much. if you look at my video you will see the boat is hardly in the water the drive i think it needs to go higher. 2in shorty. i really do not want to buy one and find that a shorty will not work ??? the 4 blade they say it lifts the back end up. i run a 3blade and take some of the cup out of the prop and it up
email it is [email protected] ,
I like your name

i just saw your boat is a 1997 . i beleave 1995 my buddy s boat the drive was higher so i think your boats ok for drive . the prop you are running is lifting you boat up you need to go with a mirage prop they are 3blades and work real good 
my boat a 1988 they put the drive lower then your boat .they find that the higher the drive the better. you may luck out by putting a mirage prop . fine what pitch the prop is then go down one pitch .on the mirage
