Got the BMAX's mounted
 
Well we got the BMAX's mounted on the Eliminator - now for the steering. .....

Do I set the tie bar so the drives are perfectly square? or should one "toe" in or out?

I remember reading somewhere about setting just off center.

BTW - It's a 28 Daytona.

I'm also in need of some type of teflon spacer to take up the gap where the steering mounts to the back of the drive. The BMAX has a wider gap than the others.

Thanks

I was told a 1/8" in.I think Panther put some teflon spacers on his too.I didn't yet but probably will this winter since i'll be keeping my bmaxs.

I have the IMCO steering and they had spacers designed to fit the Bmax plate. You should check with your steering manufacturer. Otherwise plastic spacers will work. They just don't look as good.

Just got off the phone with Ron @ IMCO Nevada - he's hooking me up - and at no charge!! Holy Cow! That's a first! LOL!!!

Any other input on setting the steering???

Thanks

I'm 1/8" toe out but maybe it has to do with prop rotation....mine spin out.

As far as the toe in/out, your best bet is to check with Daytona. Each manufacturer sets their boat up differently.
