HemiHP19 Posted April 22, 2018 Report Share Posted April 22, 2018 Need advice on replacing these Maverick 2017 seat mounts are stuck to the boat (having removed all 4 screws). Assume I am dealing with caulking that has hardened.Tried screwdriver with heat gun. Background: Maverick sent replacement aluminum backrest seat mounts to replace these factory coated versions that wore out within 4 months. Three types of wear: surface scratches, bubbling of coating, and cross threading of aluminum mount due to hardened steel factory screws. Cross threading makes one of the mounts non usable. Do not want to continue without specific advice to avoid risk of damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiHP19 Posted July 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 Thanks for the tips. Never did succeed in removing the mounts, for fear of damaging the deck. End of story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polliwog Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 Did you contact the dealer ? They should be standing up for the product and representing you with Maverick. You have a new boat get some support to get it fixed. MBC knows how they assembled the seats. If 505 was used it is a major problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
