loose trolling motor

[dse]

I have a 50# MK trolloing motor, powerdrive. When I have it down in the water and power it there is alot of play where the shaft goes down thru, to the point that it make alot of noise because it moves around in side the "bushing". Can you replace this"bushing" that the shaft slides thru? Thanks for any input.

My 50 pd Powerdrive has a lot of play too. But, it is not in the bushing. Instead, it is the whole steering motor wobbling a little in the mount. Not much to do about that other than get used to it.
