Today it was 77. We have been getting a little "june glume" in the morning but it tends to burn off by 11:00. Let me know..even if you just come down for a day trip.

Chances are good that it came with only the inside bar than the outside was added. If you use both inside and outside there is a geometric bind when drives are trimmed uneven. This will eat the upper swivel and tiller arm joints. The proper way to use two bars is to have a slot in the inner. It will then be a safety and the slot allows for drives to be trimmed uneven. With the quality of bar ends and clevises available two bars really aren't necessary.

I knew there was a reason I took mine off:cool-smiley-011:

Alright- Alright- you guys win! :party-smiley-004: I am going to fly down to San Diego just to stay motivated!!!:D

Nothing beats the 4th of july in san diego!

Geometrically speaking it is hard to just slap linkage inside and then outside the transom and then expect the geometry to line up. In the steering of autos you can find incorrect geometry in factory cars and it gives you "bumpsteer". I seriously think I have some binding going on in the linkage and I can see how it would wear out joints/clevis ect.

I just got in my raw water pumps-pretty bronze things. Am I supposed to be able to turn them by hand? I sure cant!

you should be able to turn them when there wet.

That is what I thought, but you never know.........

I have to work on the 4th!!!:throw:
