I have the electric lift.. Do you see any advantage to the electric tilt ?? I
did not have that and simply raised the motor. I had the 20" shaft and
perhaps the tilt would be of use on the 25". Does it help with the electric
tilt in keeping the motor locked down in reverse or is it just a free
floating piston thst pushes the motor up ?
