Seems only # SSC12419 is the correct part no. 19' measure from end to the hub tooth.

I removed the cable tonight. I tied a rope onto the end before I pulled it through so I can tie it to the new one and pull it through.
The number on it is: SSC12479 TELEFLEX USA20671 is this the same as part # SSC12419? why does mine have 79 as the last two digits I thought this was the length? when I measure it from the end of the rack unit to the end of the cable it is 20 feet. I found it here for $82.89. I found it here for $101.58 also found on ebay new for $85 Are these the same cable? |

trb hit the nail on the head.......nothing more to say, but order one from ski dim.they are 129.00...also randy you can get a cipa comp mirror like mine with all the mounting bracket for 87.00...i think theres a discount on either here or at planet nautique...there is cheaper ones out there but imo it seems to be the best from what i have seen..7"x14' convex is the size of it....skidims #is 1803-345-0996...i doubt anyones gonna beat their prices.or go online @www.skidim.com, and request a free catalog...i basically get everything from there when it comes to parts.

i feel it's pretty much a waist of time to install the zirk fitting. Once your on your way the water pressure is going to wash out the rease anyway.
Also read the post correctly the ball of the clamp block broke not something on the rudder. The clamp block needs to be checked once in a while but you shouldn't see much movement during operation at that joint. |

Jay, Thanks for the advice I will take it apart and check it for wear clean it up and re-grease it. That sounds like a bad situation to be in.

It is a good idea to check the clamp box for wear. In 2003 the box wore out on my 1997 boat came off the pivot ball. My wife was driving around a turn island and pulling me out of the water at the time. I watched from the ski handle as the boat slid up on the shoreline.

Randy or others
I noticed the grease zirk in the Rudder Port. When did Correct Craft start doing this? I have a 1982 (No Zirk) I could drill tap and install myself. Is this a good idea or even needed? |

One time a friend brought his boat to the lake for weekend.The steering was near frozen.need to make it work,so we cut a piece of hose and clamped it around the outer sleeve,held it higher than steering box and filled it with atf.Then we installed a plug in the end of hose(Also clamped).Then we force the cable out,extended it into the atf,since this displaced some atf it was forced up the cable.Unclamped hose moved cable back in,refilled hose repeated 3 or 4 times and had atf coming out steering box.Cable was completly free no binds and still is.This was an I need it now deal for
shade tree fix, no doubt but worked.Given the time of year and boat its on I'd get a new cable. Munday |

Randy, the white piece is called a steering clamp. It looks to be the same set up as my boat:
The 4 nuts/bolts clamping the cable should be tight. The ball joint is supposed to be loose- the clamp will pivot as the position of the rudder arm changes. Since the rudder moves freely without the cable attached, it sounds like you could use a new cable. |

After working on Ryan's boat yesterday I realized I have an issue with my steering. It is stiff and rather hard to turn. I could turn Ryan's wheel with one finger, I need both hands to turn mine... So I started taking it apart today to figure out what the problem is. I think it is the cable but not sure. i took some pics of what I found:
I took it apart here to see if the rudder moves easily by hand, it does, real easy and smooth no play... greased the fitting until grease came out around the rudder. 
This is really loose. should it be this way? 
another shot of this thing 
close up of cable at fitting 
another pic of cable 
what do you think? any suggestions? |
