    Advantages of the Front Mount steering kits installation is directly onto most V4 and V6 outboards and mounts to the front of the motor using 4 small bolts. Attaches to the outboard motor’s tiller arm using the motor’s existing drag-link.

    Measure the narrowest section of your engine well - the Front Mount kits are all 540mm wide plus they need a little extra room for the engine to turn so ideally you'll need Clearance (C) approx 740mm , as the cylinder tilts down with the motor you need to ensure this has room in front of the motor both Clearance (A) & Clearance (B) approx 120 - 150mm . Measure carefully, particularly with tapered wells

    • Optional Rear Mount (Helm) Kit - Adding his unit means the steering wheel/helm does not protrude into the helmsman's space so much as part of the helm mechanism can be recessed behind the dash. It  fits any model 401,402 and 501 helm unit - adjustable from low-profile to full protrusion for maximum flexibility in helm placement. Simply trim the spacers and studs to adjust the amount of penetration into the helm position. The front dash or console ring is fully O-ring sealed against pump body to prevent water ingress to the rear of the console. Easy to fit - easy to adjust - looks great. (REAR MOUNT KIT)
