[color:"blue"]I'm not crazy about the rudder being able to slide up and down the pin, but it didn't create any slop. I would think that with any load it would not be an issue. [/color]
I do not quite understand what you mean by this statement?
Mounting it by using the existing holes on the boat, the distance between the gudgeons appear to be shorter in distance than the old gudgeons. So it leaves more room between the lower gudgeon and rudder casting. There were no instructions as to what was the upper and lower gudgeon. They look alike, but the bushings are on the opposite side of the other 2. I think I may have the lower gudgeons upside down since the bushing is on the top instead of the bottom, but I don't that would take up the slack.
