Anyone ever have to replace the seals on a Marine Machine steering ram? I've got one seeping a bit at the end cap...

Called MM today, but they're not open on Monday.

I never had any leaks, but I did had 2 of them rebuilt by Marine Machine before upgrading the steering on the 24Super.. had an exsiting one on the boat and bought a used one for the upgrade, so I figured it'd be a good idea to have them freshened up at the same time.

I'm sure that Byng will get you pointed in the right direction when you get ahold of him.

Thank you. Actually talked to Byng this morning and will be sending out my ram first part of next week.

FWIW, I had a local hydraulics shop fix mine on my Checkmate and it was much cheaper.

They wouldn't fix mine but sold me the parts. I think it cost me somewhere around $2. Some of the seals are a bitc4!

I was quite lucky and had some connections I didn't realize I had. I asked my friends for input and one had a buddy at a hydraulic shop in town that had another guy there do it for free. That guy also gave me the parts for the other ram for free. Considering how $$$ boat ownership is, I was as happy as a little girl over that one. (Pardon the Wayne's World reference).
