1997 Stratos 282DC rebuild

[junya2]

I'm rebuilding my 1997 Stratos 282DC and having problems finding part. First I'm looking to replace the livewell timer, but i can't find one anywhere. Second, I want to change out the steeringwheel, but it's hard to find the descent ones with the 3 hole pattern. I thought about changing out the whole column. I'm replacing seats, fish finders, carpet, windshields and trying to deal with oxidation around the top. Any help would be greatly appreciated

This is a great place to find what you need for old Stratos!

I did not buy one from this guy, but this is an option. I found mine at a local shop, and then realized the previous owner had re wired both to work from the switch on the bow. Make sure your pump is working prior to the purchase, as mine was blown.

I have a 96 and need to find out how difficult it is to replace the drain in the rear live well as it it broken beyond repair and leaks.

Cando marine, bought all of stratos stuff after they where bought out. They have alot of stuff. Just do searchs and you'll find alot more stuff out there. Timers can also come frome Cabalas, and Bass Pro. A far as oxidation, you'll have to sand it down and seal fiberglass. Let a shop do that. Will look a lot better. for live well drain you can glass a new one in or just put in a thur hull fitting with new pipe. This is easy way.
Good luck David C Sr.
