been shopping for a full hydraulic steering system for my 1990 38 fountain with bravo's. I'm sorta curious of the pro's and cons of some of the different manufacturers systems.
Latham, hardin/mayfair,imco are what I've been looking at.
So far I've been leaning twards hardin system, mainly because it doesnt use the top cap as a mounting point, leaving more options available for different drive shower or top cap options, for other future updgrades.
Thanks
Matt

I went thru the same thing recently...found out most use the same helm pump char lynn(something like that) most of the rest of the stuff also std..the wing plates on the drive vary from supplier to supplier..I went with CP performance on my inside kit, already had machine marine dual ram outside....doing the hose ends are a pain...will warn you now...they have a tool to help..and it does..but can be done without it...just more of a pain !!! good luck
