<h2>Adjustable 4 Inch Set Back Jack Plate for Outboard Boat Motors</h2><p>This adjustable 4 inch set back jack plate moves an outboard motor rearward and vertically to tune prop height and boat attitude.</p><h4>Overview</h4><p>This manual jack plate gives outboard owners a straightforward way to adjust engine height and setback without swapping transom hardware. The 4 inch set back moves the motor behind the transom to improve prop bite and reduce porpoising. It suits boaters running flats boats, bass boats, bay boats, and other outboard hulls looking for better hole shot and top end.</p><h4>Built For Performance</h4><ul> <li>4 inch set back shifts motor weight rearward for cleaner water at the prop</li> <li>Manual lift adjustment lets you raise or lower engine height</li> <li>Adjustable mounting plate works with a range of outboard bolt patterns</li> <li>Rigid aluminum style construction for marine duty</li> <li>Clamps into place after adjustment to hold your setting</li> </ul><h4>Fits These Machines</h4><ul> <li>Boats with standard outboard transom bolt patterns</li> <li>Flats, bass, and bay boats running outboard power</li> <li>Skiffs and utility hulls where prop height tuning helps</li> <li>Manual jack plate setups that do not require hydraulic actuation</li> </ul><h4>On-The-Job Use</h4><ul> <li>Dialing in prop height for shallow water running</li> <li>Improving hole shot on a loaded boat</li> <li>Reducing porpoising at cruise speed</li> <li>Tuning handling on flats and bay boats</li> </ul><h4>Specs At A Glance</h4><table> <tr> <td><strong>Part Number(s)</strong></td> <td>Not specified in title</td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>Set Back</strong></td> <td>4 inch</td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>Type</strong></td> <td>Manual jack plate</td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>Application</strong></td> <td>Outboard boat motors</td> </tr> </table><h4>Good To Know</h4><p><strong>Q:</strong> Do I need special tools to install this jack plate? <strong>A:</strong> You will need the standard transom mounting hardware for your engine, along with basic hand tools and sealant for the bolt holes. Support the motor while you position the plate and torque everything to spec.</p><p><strong>Q:</strong> Will this work with any outboard? <strong>A:</strong> It fits many common outboard bolt patterns, but you should measure your transom and check your engine's mounting hole spacing first. Set back also changes steering cable and fuel line routing, so plan for that during install.</p><p><em>Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.</em></p>
