The grease fittings were only put on in latter years. Does anyone know the year? |

it may not be the cable. mine did exactly the same thing. left turns ok, right hard. there is a grease fitting on the rudder assembly under the gas tank area. that did the trick. turns great both ways now. i bet this will fix the problem.

I see that since I have the orginal white cable, I have to buy a clevis kit. Does that part connect to the rudder?

Sounds more like the helm assy,the cable could be at fault also.........
Steering systems are cheap / crashes are not.........boat dr |

All of the sudden my steering is tight to the right, sometimes stops in a certain spot, unless you turn it back to the left a little, then it frees up. It turns fine with no resistance to the left. Is the steering cable worn out?
