Wake tower rubber

[Cookie]

I have an 07XLV, I am wanting to replace the rubber between tower and boat. Any suggestions?

I did this a couple of years ago on my 07 LSV. Bought some rubber mat about 3/8 thick from Peavey Mart ( but you can get it from any store). Taking the bolts out was a PITA, but once you have it raised a bit, you can trace it out, cut a hole in the middle for the wires and a small cut to from the side to the middle to slide it in. Tighten it down and repeat 3 more times. Took more time getting the nuts off that installing the new rubber.

Lots of folks used to buy "pads" from dealer but later it got much more common to make your own. Hopefully some guys chime in on what source they used as this is a fairly common and not too difficult job you can do yourself.

I've used leftover hydroturf in a pinch. it only lasts about a season, but I have plenty of leftover and it's cheap and easy.

Do all towers have these pads? I don't see anything at the base of my tower, and it's pretty snug and tight.

We found that the roof vent flanges you can buy from home depot for $10 have a good amount of rubber you can use for something like this. Used it to replace aging speaker bracket rubber.

Contact Andrew at Bakes [email protected]. He ordered me replacements for dirt cheap. Skiers Choice no longer uses the black rubber ones. The new and improved version is a clear vinyl; kinda like that clear vinyl tubing.
