Has anybody replaced teh stock manual wake plate turnbuckles with trim tab actuators?

[matt k]

I tried to search, but didn't find anything, so...

I've got a 1987 supra comp. I absolutely love it. I mostly wakeboard behind it, so I have the wake plate set at more or less the "horizontal" position. However, at above maybe 35mph it porpoises like crazy. I'd like to replace the manual wake plate adjusters with a pair of electric lenco trim tab actuators, so I can have fingertip trim control whenever I want it. Has anybody done this? Did it work out?

I have the trim tab actuator dimensions, and I'm going to measure the space on the boat this weekend to see if it seems like they'll fit.

Thoughts?


edit: crap, now I found the huge thread about this exact topic. sorry!
