Re: Desperately seeking advise on how to bleed hydraulic steering
 

Due to my crowded transom and also stringer placement on the inside of the transom, the way it is currently set up with the thu hull fittings and the ram fittings facing down is the only possibly way it can mount :(

Re: Desperately seeking advise on how to bleed hydraulic steering
 

Disconnect the rams from the boat and let them hang with the fittings up. Either way, with the line just cracked and oil flowing out under pressure, I don't see this being the problem. But what do I know?

I talked to Thrillseeker on the phone 2 or 3 times today and I am pretty sure we have him squared away. We will be sure to get his system working 100% as I told him on the phone. If anyone else has purchased an XS system from us (Hilsinger Motorsports, LLC) and you need any assistance, definitley call me and I will be sure to get things taken care of. So far there has been few problems with the systems we have sold.

Even if you did not purchase the system from us and need assistance, please feel free to call me and I will help you get your problems solved.

I am out of town but feel free to get me on my cell @ 513-616-6147. Have a great weekend everyone.

Thank you!!

Allan Hilsinger :)

Good news.! We got the leak fixed on my friends and it works great. He's happy.. Now I just need to get mine done.! :drink:

Good news again........ Finally got decent enough weather to get mine out again, and after bleeding it through the outside hoses, it works beautifully. One finger steering.

Thanks XS.! I'll bring my digital camera home from work and snap some pic's so people can see what it looks like to install. It's easy and the instructions guide you through pretty well. I would recommend it to anyone....! :D
