Hello all,

I had some service done on our boat and they needed to warranty a mount. Long story short now I have a vibration that was not there, they tell me its in my head and honestly not worth the 3 hour drive to the dealer to hear the same thing. I talked to a few people and they said its because they didnt shim it properly when they replace the mount. I do not have a local expert on these boats around here and was hoping someone can shed some light on how to do this, I am mechanically inclined, just not on boats and now that this one is out of warranty I am willing to give it a try..... thoughts?
