T-H Marine Pro Hi-Jacker JP-6PW Manual Jack Plate, 6 Inch Setback, Aluminum, Up to 175 HP Outboards
The T-H Marine Pro Hi-Jacker (JP-6PW) is a manual aluminum jack plate built to mount an outboard engine further back and higher on the transom, improving hole shot, top speed, and shallow-water running clearance. It is machined from high strength aluminum that is 3/8 inch thick and uses a one-piece design for a rigid, no-flex mounting platform between the transom and the outboard.
Height adjustment is handled through top adjust locking bars, so the entire plate can be raised or lowered with a single wrench rather than requiring access from underneath or multiple tools. The Pro Hi-Jacker provides 4 inches of vertical adjustment and 6 inches of setback, giving installers a useful range to dial in engine height and distance from the transom for the specific boat and outboard combination. It is rated for outboards up to 175 HP, making it suited to mid-size outboard-powered aluminum and fiberglass boats rather than heavy offshore rigs.
Because the plate is a bolt-on mechanical assembly rather than a hydraulic or electric unit, there are no pumps, motors, or wiring to install or maintain - adjustment is manual, by wrench, at the locking bars. A matching Center Adjustment Bolt and Collar is offered separately by T-H Marine for the adjustment mechanism across their Hi-Jacker line.
