I'm thinking about replacing my cable/pulley system with a rack and pinion/rotary system (1960 Merc 300). I guy on kijiji has a bunch of them for $100 each. I'm assuming this isn't a bad idea (please let me know if it is). My intention would be to somehow use the existing original steering wheel. I just wanted to confirm that I'm correct about the diameter of the.......?rod? that goes through the steering plate on the engine. Is half inch correct?
Thanks

And yes it is the best idea for your boat. Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic. Note: BBcode and smileys are still usable.
