Keeping 75 Yamaha tiller straight while trailering

Just a small annoyance but the tensioning cam for my 75 Yamaha 4 stroke tiller isn't strong enough to keep the motor from flopping over to one side while trailering. I'd like to use my Transom Saver on it because I'm seeing some slight stress cracks on my transom. And, I'm sure the bouncing isn't good for the tilt and trim cylinders. However, since the motor is turned on the transom, the transom saver just doesn't match up.

Has anybody solved this problem?

Thanks
 
http://www.m-ywedge.com/.....i dont remember if this is the exact name of mine but i have been using one identical to it for 3 years...it dont hold the motor straight...i actually never tried to use it to keep the motor in the center so dont know if it will or not....i just have the motor to one extreme when i install it(5 seconds) and the motor never moves..i love it...the reason i got it is because i could never find a transom saver that fit with the fins on a 60 merc...i trailer once a week on average 150 miles on mixed roads...some of the trip is bad blacktop..potholes and the whole bit..no transom damage..
