Need help troubleshooting my Volvo Penta DPS-A outdrive steering. Here is the problem when turning the steering wheel to the right the outdrive swings to far and hits the bolts of the hydraulic trim unit (see photo). When I turn all the way to the left they outdrive doesn?t go nearly as far. How do I adjust the stroke so it is centered? It is not the steering cable because I can disconnect the pin and swing the outdrive by hand and get the same results. You can see it hitting the black rod on the end of the steering cable. Looks like it may be the wrong parts? I would at the very least I want it to quit hitting the trim unit.

Any suggestions?
