40 merc Jack plate

[Natural Light Kid]

I currently have a 25 Suzuki on a Jack plate on my boat. I am looking to repower with a 40 merc. Can I use my old Jack plate or will I need a new one? If I need a new one is it due to the strength or the width of the mount? If it's the width I can probably modify mine.

bolt it on take it out and give it the juice, make sure nothing is flexing

you sellin the suzuk?

second that. if the holes dont line up then its to small. i want to say the mount plate on 25 down is smaller than 40 and up.

Hey D, if Natural light Kid doesn't get the jack from you I might be interested. I have a 40 Yama I could use it on if it will fit/work with it.
