    Default Water/Seperator Install

    Would some of you mind sharing by way of pics your installation of a water/separator? Just trying to get some ideas. Thanks

    Mine on my Ranger is mounted on one of transom braces. I have seen most the bilige of boats. They are not real hard to install. I would just make sure it will be pretty easy to get to for replacement, and I would put it near a place you will be putting things in and out so it doesn't get hit by something. There are a couple of trackers on page 1 or 2 maybe 3 by now on the main forum with some good pics of their seperators. Check them out...sorry I don't have any pics. If you have any questions please ask. What kind of boat is it going on??

    Thanks for the reply! Going on a Tracker 185. The easy to get to part is the problem. They sure pack everything in these Trackers not leaving much room to mount anything additional!

    It is crowded below deck so I installed the separator in the splash well where it is easy to get to.

    That's what I was looking for. ????What are the connectors that I will need to hook this thing up with, and where might I purchase them. Kit came with the mounting bracket and filter.

    I used two 3/8 x 3/8 barbed connections

    Two brass plugs

    Add two small hose clamps, two screws for mounting, and some teflon tape.
    All this can be picked up at the hardware store. Got mine at Ace

    PanMan--Where did you get that mounting piece? Make it? I'm going to have to raise my mount up some.

    The mounting block is a left over piece of starboard (plastic wood) I used when I was mounting the new 997 transducer.
