Common Concerns Answered
I have an older Rupp outrigger model; will this kit fit?
This kit is designed for a full pair of Rupp outriggers, providing comprehensive hardware. While Rupp maintains high standards, occasional minor variations in very old configurations may exist. It is advisable to visually compare your existing hardware to the components typically found in such kits to ensure perfect compatibility for very specific older models.
I'm concerned about sourcing individual parts if I lose one later.
The primary advantage of this kit is its completeness, offering all necessary components for a full pair, thus mitigating the need to source individual parts. If a specific component were to be lost post-installation, individual stainless steel bolts and Delrin bushings are generally available through marine hardware suppliers, though direct Rupp part numbers for individual items may vary.
What if the bolt length or thread pitch isn't exactly right for my specific setup?
This kit provides standard hardware for Rupp outriggers. If your outriggers have non-standard modifications or are from a very early, specific production run, minor adjustments might occasionally be necessary. However, the included stainless steel bolts and lock nuts are chosen for broad compatibility across Rupp's popular outrigger lines, minimizing such occurrences.
