Need help on Helm w/ hydraulic

[kman104501]

I have one that is new and still sealed in the box on ebay. Not sure if it is the correct one but let me know if you would be interested.

kman thanks, but for whatever reason I'm going with HK6400a....I don't know what the difference is b/t the one you have on eBay HK6324a and the HK6400a.

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!

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

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

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.
