Re: OMC Tilt Pin

There are plastic bushings in there that are generally pretty brittle. The way the castings are made may prevent you from getting the diameter you need for a tilt tube and also maintaining enough beef on the casting to support the motor.

They do make a transom mounted bracket that will support the cable. I think there are two versions – one clamps under the motor thumbscrews and uses a faux tilt tube with the tie arm, and the other uses a ball joint deal that has the cable end connecting to a bracket on the motor.
