A ach one ball stud to the front of your kicker motor and toward
the same side as that of theT‐4 drive rod.. Some motor manufactur‐
ers have a special bracket that can be purchased from them
[Mercury] that will eliminate the need to drill a hole. (Picture 1)
Other manufacturers may already have a pre‐dilled
hole that will accept our ball stud. (See picture 2)
If you own a motor that does not fit into
either one of these categories then you
will have to drill a hole in your motor to
mount the ball stud. Look directly in front
of the motor cover to determine where is
the best place for you to drill a hole . The
ball stud can be installed with the ball up
or down. The only concern is that you
need to have enough room to a ach the
quick disconnect over the ball stud. Be
certain you are not drilling into anywhere
that has wiring routed through it.
(See pictures 3‐4)

If you do not have adequate room to a ach the quick
disconnect to the ball stud, you will have to use our
moun ng brackets (included), in order to give you ade‐
quate room. You will need to drill two holes and
a ached the brackets as shown . (See pictures 5‐6)
NOTE: If using the flat
moun ng brackets, it is best
to keep them as short as pos‐
sible. The kicker ball stud
should be as close to the
kicker frame as possible.
