Thanks,but there is no 7/16 bolt on top of swival bracket. SHould this be on the actual engine or the bracket that is attached to the transom. There is a hole on top of the transom bracket. I just got the motor and it runs great, but there is no steering friction. How can I rig this.

Dave the swival bracket is the peice beteen the two clamp brackets that the motor tilts and steers on. Goto BAM Marine site and look up your engine in the parts breakdown to see if thats whats missing
