Yes if it’s set up correctly it’s supposed to allow movement so you can run your main with the kicker lifted without it flopping back and forth. Does it work? Some say it does some say not so much.
Yep. Don’t torque it right down. Your looking for the sweet spot that will lock it tight enough to steer but loose enough to slide in and out when your kicker is up. It’s a b!tch.
It’s a good idea to also add a rubber bungee cord with a hose clamp on either end of the rods so it doesn’t overextend and inner rod fall out. Ez steer sells one for about $50 or just buy pieces at the hardware store for less than $10 like I did.
