Re: 1978 Johnson 25hp RC Converting to Tiller Arm Question
According to the parts list I'm looking at, it does not have a special steering bracket on the electric model. Assuming that is correct, there should be two "ears" on the bracket where a tiller would mount. Simple piece of cake to do it. All you need to do is look at the parts diagram and obtain the stuff you are missing.
On the other hand, if by chance you don't have those two ears, you will have to change the steering bracket. More work and expense.
