Transducer Shield and Saver is worth the coin. Heres how I mounted mine on a 6″ SM jackplate. It consisted of the SS spring loaded flip up bracket (SBB-4 Spring Back Bracket), a metal mounting plate (TS-LSS-2-L to fit LSS2 structure scan transducer) to keep the actual transducer from flexing on the factory SS bracket, and a plastic block (BLOCK-LSS1-2). There are details and more pictures under my profile. If you have trouble viewing them please let me know and Ill post them for you.Its worked perfectly for me the past 2 seasons.
