Everyone,
Have a wake tower (2003 vintage) that is developing persistent cracks at one weld point on both sides of the tower. See pics.I had one side welded already last year and it is re-cracking. Now I have both sides cracked.
What can I check on the tower to make sure that it is tightly mounted. I get a lot of side to side play on the tower, and it shakes on water -- shakes come from rear arm but I believe there is supposed to be play in the mount for the arm.. Mounts seem solid on the boat itself. Would it be best to disassemble the welds and pieces to make sure there is nothing internally that could be causing an issue.
I have seen that there were weld issues with newer model seadoo towers that they released a rear support arm kit. Would something like that be worth looking into to prevent these weld issues?
Thanks in advance,
