[QUOTE="CRB357, post: 507067, member: 20904"] Well I replaced the cable with a new one. The tilt tube actually looked great. Looked like a clean gun barrel. I cleaned it out anyway and lubed the new rod both inside tube and out and installed everything. Still have the 4-5” of play and steering feels even stiffer now. So I guess the helm is the only thing left. It’s the rotary type. I just would like to understand how this helm works bc there isn’t any noticeable binds, grinding, looseness, or anything that would lead to me feeling like something is wrong with the helm. Except for the massive amount of play! Ha! [ATTACH type="full"]117917[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
