It is most likely mechanical steering, Can be replaced with Teleflex type
unit. First remove the cable which is probably stuck in the outboard steering tube. ( can be Very difficult) Look on cable for numbers which can be crossed to length. Go to your favorite Marine supply and buy a complete steering system. Replace everything except the steering wheel. ( the steering wheel can also be difficult to remove) Bill "Dread" wrote in message ... broke something in steering, dont know if its cable or hydraulic steering. dont know what if all parts need replacing. can someone please help. 1st is it hydraulic or conventional cable steering. there is a 120 force ob on it. 2nd can it be done in a drive way any and all help will be appreciated |

The usual problem is the telescoping tube through the OB up pivot freezing up with contamination. (Specially if its been lubricated) This locks up the steering wheel. If you haven't heavy handed the wheel so as to break the inner cable, you unscrew the big aluminum nut on the cable side of the pivot and turn the wheel to show the inner cable. Squirt some releasing fluid. and patiently, PATIENTLY work the cable drive to and fro with the nut retightened. A judici\ous smack with a mallet plumb on the far end of the drive rod can help things along. Patience and releasing fluid is your friend. When the steering rod starts moving - wipe off the grunge (over n over) Brian Whatcott Altus OK p.s. dry lube only, if you must. |
