my steering is froze up 1989 baja 190 merc 4.3 w/ alpha 1. when moving the outdrive the slop is in the joint with the red arrow in the pic. any ideas on how to fix it? thanks.
Pull the pin outa the end of the cable at the end of the aluminum tube in the picture...
Then loosen the Big nut on the other end, 'n Pull the cable out,...
That's where it's probably Frozen....
The cable end, Inside that tube...
If that don't fix it,...
Replace the helm, 'n cable as a Kit....
hey, i'm tring to remove my steering cable. the clevis pin is stuck bad.I finally got the carter pin out but the clevis pin wont come out. I mushroomed the end tring to beat it up. i'm thinking,
1. drill it out, or
2. grind the top of the clevis pin and try to punch it down, BUT i cant tell if the top of the pin is counter sunk and if it is, grinding the top wont work. any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.
does anyone know if this will fit my boat? serial no. 06786756 (second letter might be a "c")on gimbal housing, sterndrive a517979. i cant tell how it would bolt up. or what steering cable to buy. thanks.

Ayuh,... It should,.... they only come in a couple of flavors...
The hyd. line connections might be a different size, or not...
but that's where the difference would be...
