I recently picked up clearance Thrust Vector XL's from JBP and while the description says they're good for 2015/16 21' Yamaha boats, I think something isn't compatible. Of course I also modified them to work with the lateral thrusters.. The rear brace hits the end of the nozzle. Am I missing something or just incompatibility? @JetBoatPilot is this something I can fix/mod on my own?

Yes you could drill holes and add the cross tie behind the cross member like our current setup. Then add fasteners to secure the leading edge of the cross member. I'd make a jig to ensure that your holes are aligned properly. Or simply lay them down on top of one another and drill them both at the same time. Here's a look at our current setup which you'll need to replicate to make them work with the new style nozzle. I honestly forgot that the cross tie hit the threaded boss in the center of the nozzle. They added that in 2015.108059
