Thats helpful regarding my hydraulic steering question. Do you mean
that it requires a bit more rotation but has less slop or slack when
changing directions?
Rick - sorry for the delay in answering - just got home from the bay.
With cable steering I always got an immediate response when the wheel
was moved (even just a little). With the hydraulic it doesn't seem to
respond quite as sensitively but there is no slop - just seems to be a
more gentle turn- if that makes sense. This may have more turns hard
over to hard over than my previous systems which may account for that.
There is no resistance to turning the wheel like there is on cable
steering but you still have a feel - just like power steering on an
auto. So far I really like it. Hope that answers your question - if
not hit me again and I'll try to explain it better. Take care.
