2 Attachment(s)
I have had 2 failures on my mayfair steering line on the steering rams.The rubber is failing inside the fitting ,the hose it fraying on the end and coming apart. I have the tool from Marine Machine to put themtogether etc, The rubber line are I guess getting old?

I want to get some made ofStainless braided line made up with the stainless fittings.

Were can I get these at a reasonable price ,any sugestions??


Thanks
Rob

Check your local Hydraulic hose shops. They can hook you up or tell you where to go. We have a couple of places here that do it. Are those ends the kind you can disassemble with wrenches? If they are you should have no problem.

Rob,

We can make up some custom SS lines for you, not too much $$$.

Call me and I'll hook you up in the morning.

Call Tommy @ WPM, they make all their braided lines and fittings 100% stainless and are very reasonable. I put WPM steering on one of my boats 7 years ago and it still looks like new and just replaced all the lines my 35 this year with his stuff, you wont find anything better IMO.

The first pic of the lines connected looks fine. The pic of them off the boat and the ends off, wow! How did you know they were bad? This concerns me because i have the same stearing system.

I give em a call,thanks.


Liquidsation it blew out part way and started leaking till I lost steering,The inside one is the only one that blew of completely.

Bing at Marine Machine is saying that Hustler is not installing/building the hoses right the reason of the failures.Thats the reason I purchased their mandrel in the pick.

Thanks Strip, I'm not worried now. Good luck getting the right parts you need.
