    Nx882 Trailer

    I'm looking for a NX882 trailer prefer galvanized if possible, but a good condition painted trailer will do. Willing to travel in the Maryland or Virginia areas may even venture into northern North Carolina if a good trailer is found. Please send a message if you have one or know of one...

    2005 Nitro Trailer disk brakes/rotor

    Dave, Look on this website for the brakes components you have. You should have the UPF DB-42 brake system... at least that's what I have on my 02 tracker trail star trailer (for NX882) . This site seems to have the best prices and shipping is not too bad either. Plus they ship pretty fast...

    Trailer wiring

    Josh, The 5th wire is for the brake lockout solenoid which will prevent the brakes from being applied in reverse. Since you have a 4 wire plug, you will need to make a connection for the blue wire (5th wire) to your reverse light power wire. I personally would recommend you buy a five flat...

    Motor Guide Chatter

    Randy, i assume you are talking about the bearing mounted to the lower end of the larger shaft. Remove the setscrew and pull down the bearing, clean it up with brake cleaner, let it dry then apply a silicone based lube. Once you have done that replace the bearing and lock down the collar...

    First Outing of the Season

    Nice fish Jim, especially when you get to take the little one out. Where you fishing the hot or cold side? I have a club tournament on Lake Anna and have never been there before... you got any tips, anything will help. We will be launching out of Anna Point Marina (31 March). Thanks Jim, Eric

    IMPORTANT 150 XR6 QUESTION ! !

    If your running 55 on gps and taching 4400 i'd look at the tach or a voltage regulator. I have a 99 NX882 with an XR6 (original owner) and have had several different failures of components which lead to an rpm oddity. Next time you go out tap the tach at WOT and see if it jumps up or down. If...

    Trolling motor options

    If your current setup is a 12 volt system, you will also need another trolling battery, battery tray, wire upgrade if it's not 6 gauge wire (it's what i have seen as stock on 24v systems) and possibly a plug, depending on how you wire it. Eric

    BUYER BEWARE

    Why did you accept the boat at delivery? Should have refused delivery if it was this bad.

    Job Update

    Jim, As long as the company keeps in mind that not everybody can afford to buy a 35K+ car/truck/SUV, then I think it could be successful and would consider it a viable option (the truck), price it too high and you lose a potential customer(s)

    new or used

    I have a 99 NX 882 with the 150 XR-6. I bought a new aluminum 23p Quicksilver prop for a spare, it was $125-$150. I have had to use it a couple of times and also change it while on the water. I have it in my passenger storage bin, it's been there for 10 years...bin still holding. The...

    Gel coat damage from trailer bunk

    I will agree with you Berry, i most likely do not have the trailer far enough in the water. As for the fix, since the glass fibers are not showing, I am going to try and fix it like I used to do on surfboards with resin layers then use a gel coat repair kit to try and color match it back. If...

    Transom is Toast

    Steve, I also have a 99 882. Do you have any cracks in the gel on the transom? I have been wondering how my transom is doing but don't want to break into it to find out. What did you do to figure out it was waterlogged besides the water coming out from the tiedown points? Thanks for...

    What a practice!!!

    Rob, you on the Potomac? I was going to go fishing but if there's a big tourney out of Smallwood then I might stay away. How many boats will be there?

    Trailer Tires on new boat wearing out!

    Radials are going to be better than bias ply, but they should not wear out that fast. First check your tire pressure and make sure it's at or close to the recommended cold tire press. My 170DC axle was slightly bend and caused the same thing, they replaced the axle and i had radials put on and...

    NX882 PVS question

    Jim, I had my prop reworked and blueprinted back in the spring, then hit a tree branch (submerged) and had to have the prop fixed. This time I had them add the PVS holes so I could try to increase the hole shot. I too put a plate on but the one I have is smaller than yours, it's a bryans foil...
