Anybody know where I can get one for bravo drives?
Thanks

Lots of places make them. You can get one from WMP, Laythem, CP Performance. I am sure I am missing some but look around you will find some.

You will need to know your drive centers. That is the measurement btwn your drives. You can take it at the skeg if you want (make sure your skegs are not bent.

Thanks for the info. I was hoping to find a used one, but if not then I guess new will work.

Unstable, what do you think about fabricating some. I have a 272 also and need a tie bar too, just NOT paying $600 for something I probably can make for $200 or less. I have two friends at work with maching shops at home and we have been chatting. how much were you hoping to spend?

maybe we make two and cut the setup and design time in 1/2??

we were thinking about an annodized alluminum solid cylinder section with threaded ends and heim joints. then bridgeport machine some brackets for the drive ends.

what do others think of this design? they don't have to be stump pullers as many boats have nothing there in the first place . I stripped out a drive pivot bolt this year and had to helicoil it, convinced me that it is time to get a tie bar.

Stainless is the only way that I would go. You would be amazed at the stress that those bars can be under on landing. Alluminum will help with a outward force but will do very little for a inward one.

Please excuse me for posting here, but since I also own a 1984 272, I thought you can help me find the plastic rectangular trim that surrounds the port holes. I tried Formula help line and they couldn't help me. Dimensions are 15.5 x 5.5 Thanks

Got mine at Eddie Marine, about 275.00 delivered. I couldn't find a used one anywhere.

I've got an older used TRS tie bar--it's 33 1/2 on center of the connection joint. It's stainles but got painted so it would clean up ok.

Let me know if you're interested.

same here -

call Chuck or anyone is c/s @ Formula and leave a voice mail - he'll call you back with the drive spacing, 260-724-1412

good luck
