Yes they do work.We put a set on a 32 Enforcer and it picked up 4 MPH and carried the bow much better.
Do you need a set? I have a complete set with drive rams extended and extended Mayfair steering rams with all the mounts, hoses and cables if you need them.

I know the Stern Jack is no longer made and I know that they usually were beneficial.....but here is the question......Why aren't more people running them? Do they cause a great deal of added stress on the gimbal assembly or does dual hyd. steering make it OK? I have thought about adding one but am unsure......

Back when these were popular we installed several twin and single units. When we used them with HP gimbal rings and hydraulic steering we had zero problems after several years. We installed a few with standard gimbal and no hydraulic steering and had gimbal problems with all of them within a year.
They are a good product with the proper installation but that goes with anything you purchase.
With extension boxes becoming more popular in the past 10 years and offered as a factory option these became less popular which is why they were dropped from production.

I've had one for 10 years with hyd steering and stock gimbal. The guy I bought it from ran it for 5 yrs w/o hyd steering. The steering pin was worn but the rest was okay. It was easier for me to add the hyd steering than replacing the gimbal....It was worth 6mph on my boat supposedly...
