Steering cable to go
Posted: Fri Apr 23, 2021 9:13 pm
Hi
I have a 4+2 steering cable. Ultraflex M66 4.75m (15' 7" I think). This is heavy duty for up to 90hp or so.
The Morse helm has play so I am replacing both helm and cable. The cable looks fine, but I was advised the coiled wire that engages with the helm teeth can stretch over time as the teeth wear, so when fitted to a new helm can slip.
As I say, it looks fine and moves as new. Free if you want it to try. Let me know, I'm in Guildford.
Cheers, Clive
