Re: Frozen Steering *- - SUCCESS !!!
My continuing saga,
I have been on vacation and working plenty of overtime so the boat has been "bleaching" in my driveway but today I got to spend some time with her.
I borrowed an engine hoist from a local garage and got the engine off the back of the boat. I then pounded out the old tube and after some juggling of washers and shims I was able to get the new tube installed all by myself. ( the right tool for the right job is SO true )
Tomorrow I am going to try and get the engine back onto the transom after I get the steering rod into the new sleeve. I figure by the time I get her all set for fishing I should be catching some winter flounder but I will prevail.
