This Steering look right?

so I'm trying to finish up this repower and I got a double cable kit to adapt this motor to my boat . Does this look correct? The motor seems like it can turn more to one direction than the other but I could be wrong. I'm a beginner this is my first boat thanks!

Sorry for double post. I pulled the rod that connects the cable to the ear that comes off the motor from the old motor and the amount of turn is equal both directions now. Feel pretty smooth to turn (takes a lil effort but that is a decent sized motor) I think it's good I'm gonna try to test it out on the lake tomorrow . I'll keep checking it to make sure bolts don't come loose

Took the boat out and was sticky and stiff could this due to over tightening the bolts ? I didn't use a torque wrench

i did grease it but I'll go through and clean a regress's , I noticed some hardened old looking grease on one of the rods.
