if the system has sealed boxes then that kit comes with 24' hoses also. that looks like a good deal if it has the hoses as the model number says. then you would only need the bezel kit.

Thank you sir!

no problem

I bought HK6400a from a reputable eBay seller this morning for $876, which includes 20' hoses and shipping charges.

I bought the 20 degree bezel kit for $75 at go2marine.com.

I'll keep you guys posted on this project once these get shipped. Thanks for all of your expertise!

:nice:

Thanks for the vote Reel! The install seems easy IMO. I'm going to use the existing cable to feed the hoses so that shouldn't be a problem at all.

I guess I'll be finding out how easy it really is very soon!

My hoses are cooper water tube, by what I understand it was done at the factory in 1984??

Blue_Runner 06-12-2009 09:48 AM

Wow, never heard of copper tubing in a hydro steering system. But if you can't tell by now, I don't know much about hydro steering :zip:

I know enough about steering cables though including how much they cost and how dangerous they can be when they fail! I got real lucky 2 years ago when running about 30 mph with 6 folks on board she snapped and sent the V into an instant sharp right turn. Luckily I throttled down just in time as we were heading straight for a wooden seawall on the lake.

No one was thrown out but it was scary.
