steering cable replacement on 1979 V20 Center Console
I've got to replace the steering cable on my 1979 V20 CC. I believe I need a 15' cable. I did a search on the site and that is what I came up with. The white marking on both ends of my cable are worn to the point I cannot read them anymore. Does 15' sound right?
The other issue is that there are no lifting rings or attachment points on the Evinrude 150Hp motor. I'm thinking of wrapping a lifting strap around the motor and lifting it with my motor hoist. Using a lifting strap seems shaky to me though and I can see things slipping and the motor come crashing to the ground. Is there a better way to lift the motor in order to get the steering cable out?
