Toilet shims, drive them down between the bracket and transom mounts, cost about $2 at the hardware store. They are clear wedge plastic shims, I had the same problem, and this has taken care of it. After they are wedged in the gap, break them off and you will never even know they are in there.Quote:

Let me know how it works skibum. I have to remove mine also. I dont mind the rattle but it would be nice if its gone.
Just an idea, but you could buy a lot of them and re-install them everytime you put the platform back on, they are very cheap.Quote:

I was thinking about using a plastic piece and glueing it on. I like your idea better; guess I need to go to the auto parts store . . .
