Remote -to- Tiller

[BayouBill-LDF]

Looking for direction - want to convert my 1991 Evinrude 60hp from remote operation to a 'tiller'. Has anyone here done this? If so, where did you get the conversion (kit) parts? Far northern Wisconsin resident.<br /><br />Thank's

Yo, Bill. I've seen lots of tiller OMC twins up there in the frozen north. Have you asked an OMC Dealer?<br /><br />Red sky at night. . . . <br />JB

J.B. Thank you for the response ... you bet, contacted a number of OMC dealers in WI, IL, and MI. Kit's range from $300 -to- $470 depending on dealer ... kicker is, most claim they can't sell me the (heart of my problem)parts but they would be willing to do conversion for me for $40 to $60 an hour plus parts - book estimate chg 4 -to- 6 hours. Would like to do it on my own ... I have completed Tech. School course(s)for small engine, outboard and I/O repair so I don't feel over challenged by this task. Repair work is not my business. Took classes for personal knowledge and fun... also to maintain personal motors and lawn tools. I'm still searching, thanks again for the response. Bill

I'd find a different dealer to buy my parts from. They can sell you anything, if they want to.<br /><br />------------------<br />...have fun...corm<br /><br />cubic inches = power<br />power = speed<br />speed = FUN<br /><br />Email me if you need to.

Check the back of Magazines like Trailer Boats. Here's one from a Bass&Walleye mag. 800-382-3321. Say's 25% off OMC parts. There's lots of these mail order OMC dealers around.
