The Buckshot Racing #77 Billet Solid Motor Mounts are precision CNC-machined from 6061 aluminum and engineered as a high-performance upgrade for Mercury 2-stroke V6 outboards, including 2.0L, 2.4L, and 2.5L engines.
Finished with a durable black anodized coating, these mounts replace factory rubber mounts with a solid, rigid connection that significantly improves steering response, handling, and overall boat control. Designed for serious performance use, they deliver higher machining quality, superior anodizing, and better value compared to other options on the market. Bob's Machine Shop

Solid Mount Upgrade for Mercury V6 Performance
Factory rubber mounts are designed to absorb vibration, but they also allow the engine to move under load. At higher speeds, this flex can cause delayed steering input, instability, and reduced driver confidence.
Solid billet mounts eliminate this movement by creating a direct connection between the powerhead and midsection. The result is sharper steering, improved tracking, and more predictable high-speed handling—a must for performance boating and racing.
This upgrade is ideal for Mercury V6 platforms such as XR2, XR4, XR6, XRi, 150 HP, 175 HP, 200 HP, 225 Pro Max, and 225X, where control and precision are critical.
Precision CNC Machining and Black Anodizing
Each mount is CNC machined in-house by Buckshot Racing #77 from high-grade 6061 billet aluminum, ensuring tight tolerances and consistent fitment. This precision results in a clean installation and reliable performance under load.
The black anodized finish adds a hardened protective layer that resists corrosion, wear, and harsh marine environments, making these mounts ideal for both freshwater and saltwater use.
Our manufacturing process delivers exceptional consistency, durability, and finish quality, giving you a premium product without the premium price.
Choose Your Setup: Uppers, Lowers, or Both
We offer complete flexibility depending on your needs. You can select upper mounts, lower mounts, or a full set (both).
Replacing only the uppers or lowers can provide improvement, but for maximum performance, installing both upper and lower mounts fully eliminates engine movement throughout the mounting system.
The lower mounts are compatible with modified high-performance setups, including engines running a one-piece exhaust adapter plate, commonly used in Mercury Racing and performance builds.
Fitment Across Mercury V6 2-Stroke Engines
These billet mounts are designed to fit all legacy Mercury V6 2-stroke outboards, including 2.0L, 2.4L, and 2.5L engines.
Common applications include Black Max, XR2, XR4, XR6, XRi, 150 HP, 175 HP, and 200 HP models, as well as performance platforms like Pro Max, 225 Pro Max, 225X, 260 EFI, and 280 EFI HP.
Mercury’s consistent mounting design across these engines allows for a direct replacement of factory rubber mounts in most applications.
Performance Benefits on the Water
Once installed, the improvement is immediate. Steering becomes more responsive, the boat tracks straighter, and driver feedback is significantly enhanced—especially at speed.
This is most noticeable in high-performance bass boats, lake boats, offshore setups, and racing applications, where control and stability are essential.
Solid mounts transmit more vibration to the hull than rubber mounts, but this is expected and widely accepted in performance setups.
Built for Performance and Value
The Buckshot Racing #77 Billet Solid Motor Mounts deliver a proven performance upgrade with precision machining, durable anodizing, and flexible configuration options (UPPERS, LOWERS, or BOTH).
From XR6 fishing motors to 225 Pro Max and 300+ HP builds, these mounts are built to keep your Mercury tight, responsive, and in control at any speed.
