can anyone tell me what brand column formula uses? I have an '87 242 and want to add tilt. Also does formula use a tapered or splined shaft? I thought they used teleflex but i cannot find any makings on my unit.

Formula is using the teleflex tilt helm on all the later boats. 3/4 inch tapered shaft.

Great! Thats the info I was looking for!

I have the steering out of my 272 complete from when I replaced it with hyd. How close to Il. are you

I'm coming to chicago next week. What do you want for it? I'm definatly interested in it.

Don't have a price in mind. You could look at it and make an offer. Won't be to bad I wouldn't think as I don't have a clue what its worth. It is complete frount to rear. It is located just south of Peoria give me a call 309-696-9588.
