Mounting Hardware & Installation Guide
Important Installation Note: Measuring Cable Length
To ensure this 10-foot kit is correct for your boat, measure your existing cable from the threaded nut at the helm to the center of the engine connection, then add approximately 6 inches for the rack travel. If your old cable has a part number stamped on the plastic jacket (usually near the helm), it will typically end in "10" for a 10-foot cable.
Are you replacing an existing steering system?
If you are moving from a rotary system to this rack and pinion, you may need to check the width of your dashboard to ensure the rack has enough room to move side-to-side. Would you like me to find the clearance dimensions for the T87 helm?
The Uflex TM87 10' Rack & Pinion Steering System – TM87OX10 is an excellent upgrade for boat owners seeking a high-quality, reliable steering system that delivers precise control, durability, and confidence on the water.
