MGA518A1 – Gator Shock Absorber & Bow Arm Rubber Rest Replacement
The multi-purpose Gator Flex 360 Mount Shock Absorber protects fiberglass decks during rough water rides. Built from
high impact rubber for easy installation the Gator Bumper can be used to secure multiple transducer cables, serve as a
rope handle holder and as a built-in bounce buster to protect your boat during bone-jarring rough water rides. The bow
arm rubber rest makes the mount more stable while in the stow position.
The Gator Shock Absorber:
Protects boat deck during rough water runs
Securely holds up to 2 transducer cables
Slots for holding rope handle
Adjusts to fit mount and boat installation
Bow Arm Gator Rubber Rest:
Restricts bow arm movement
Important to mount performance
Enhanced design—larger, more durable
Gator Shock Absorber Installation Instructions
1. Stretch the Gator Flex Bumper into place on the Gator Flex Mount bow arm (Figure 1).

NOTE:
If using as a transducer cable holder insert the cables on the underside of the bumper and then flex the bumper into
position on the bow arm. More than one bumper can be used to hold transducer cables and protect them from being cut
during mount operation. Additionally, convenient grooves have been added to hold the handle rope on either side.
Bow Arm Rubber Rest
1. Remove the old rest.
2. Apply a marine grade adhesive or a quick-dry glue to the back of the new rest.
3. Apply the rubber rest to the bow arm as shown (Figure 2).
