Default Hydraulic Steering

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY INPUT ON ADD ON HYDRAULIC STEERING? I WANT THE CHEAPEST/BEST VALUE. I GOT A PRICE OF $995 FOR A SINGLE RAM MAYFAIR UNIT. I HAVE A STERN JACK AND RUNNING 80+ MPH ON A 272 BAJA. ANY THOUGHTS WOULD BE APPRECIATED

Hi kennyo,

Feel free to give me a call and I will quote you a price on any system you are interested in, other than a single ram system. It is my beleif that the single ram systems do not increase safety to an acceptable level, thereby falling short of their intended purpose. No matter what make you decide to buy, please consider going with a package that offers a dual ram application. I know it costs a bit more, but the downside can be very bad.

We are exclusive dealers for XS Performance Marine, who specialize in Hydraulic Steering Systems. Several board members have purchased these systems from us and to my knowledge, all have been very satisfied.

Call me anytime or get me by e-mail @ [email protected]

Thank you, and thank you Itllfli for the nice words.

I just got my XS marine system delivered friday, and let me tell you, the workmanship is beautiful. Haven't installed it yet, but it sure looks sweet. I don't think you can go wrong with these guys.....

o, and waaaaaaaaaay cheaper than anybody else.!

I know, we are working on that!! By the end of the week we hope to have a direct link from the homepage going straight into an informational page about the systems.

We do carry an add-on system for a Twin Bravo setup. If you are interested in pricing please call or e-mail me and I will be sure to get you any info you would like. Ofcourse, anyone else is welcome to contact me as well.

Thank you everyone,

Allan

Hey from looking at that last photo, can you still run a Semrik Drive Shower? It does not look like it has the clearance for the tubes. Rag's

I bought an IMCO dual ram system from Teague (sp?). Better prices than buying direct from IMCO and the system has worked excellent.

My 80 mph Thoroughbred steers with one hand at all speeds.

Basically with any drive shower make or design you might have, you can die grind a small notch on the wing plate to create the clearance you need for your particular application. This will not effect the integrity of the wingplate. We can also have XS do this for you at no charge, you can send me the drive shower and they will fit it on a drive they have at their shop and then notch it for you. It is a simple solution to a simple problem that provides no downside.

Hope that helps you Rag's
