Talon installation

Hey everyone. I have a CMC Power Lift jackplate (circa 2000) on my PIII. Im considering mounting talons on it and just wanted to know if anyone can verify that specific jackplate will support Minn Kotas adjustable jackplate brackets? Thanks.Matt

It shouldnt have a problem with the brackets are the Talons. Not sure of the hole pattern in the side as to whether are not the holes will line up. If you havnt got the Talons yet, give me a call. I can have them shipped to your door.JohnJones Trolling Motor Services870 773 3474Motorguide/MinnKota/PowerPole/Lowrance/Humminbird

Make sure you use the anti-seize grease when you do the install. If you make a mistake and want to back off one of those nuts they are impossible to reverse! Yes, we made that mistake

mgilg, i have a 99 PIII and am waiting for the 12ft talons to come out and have the same CMC JP as you. from what i have found is you need the sandwich style universal plate and spacer. im sure BCB will chime in or you could call them to verify thats the correct one.

BCB does not mount Talons and with the different mounting options that Power Pole and MinnKota have now they defer to the manufacturers to guide folks along. We just cant stay abreast of our product and everuything of someone elses as well.
