    Cofusion on steering cable

    Hey guys,
    Does anybody know what steering cable for use in a 2000 2100V limited. I'm confused, but I think it is either a SSC13417 or an SSC5217. I've seen both suggested so I don't know which to order
    Any help would be appreciated because I want to get this part ordered ASAP so I can have the boat back out on the water since the season here is shorter in Oklahoma City than I'm used to.

    Thanks

    I have just gone through this same confussion. I have a 24 V and the OEM cable was a ssc13421 and they are on back order and I was unable to find one anywhere. I called teleflex, they were very helpful on explaining the differences between part numbers. For my boat there were actually several different cables that were a direct replacement with different levels of quality. I was able to get a ssc15421 for about $10 more and it is a better cable. SPBFAN was able to help out in getting it to me for a good price and I am changing the old one out tonight. Good luck with your quest.

      Call Kevin or Mike at Grandlake boat sales, they will know.

      Good place to get your boat serviced, but it will be about a 2.5 hour drive, Pier 51 marina can also help, which is about 1 hour closer.
      The worst day of boating is still the better than the best day of work......, unless you bend your prop.

        I'll give them a call. Thanks! I planned on doing it myself though, nothing like getting down and dirty w/ your "new to me" boat

          It should be stamped on the current cable.

            My boat is on its busted trailer in a shop right now so I don't have access to it, and I'd rather a bunch of filthy guys not climb around in my boat.

              I'm a newbie to inboards, so I called Grand Lake Boat Sales in OK, and they thought the steering cable might be 'bound' instead of just old. Should I be able to turn the rudder w/ my hand w/ the boat on the trailer? Also, does it still sound like a bad cable if its only really hard to turn to the left, but one-finger-turning easy to go to the right? It was hard to turn left when under way, but not in neutral. Thoughts?
