    Where to get a Steering cable

    Ok I have a 2004 switch-v, I have pulled out the old cable, and now how do I figure out what it is?
    Also what is the correct way to measure it?
    Can I replace just the cable, or do I have to change out the whole stem?

    Thanks

    There should be a number on one end that indicates the style and length. Teleflex is probably what you'll end up with. Here's a page on their site to help decode the numbers that are hopefully on your old cable - http://www.teleflexmarine.com/docume...002_5_1071.pdf

      Look on your cable for something like SSC13418. The last two digits are the length of the cable.

        Steering cable

        I just replaced mine and got the best price on ebay by $40.00. It came with a new steering wheel that I didn't need but it was still the cheapest by a long shot. My old one didn't have any numbers on it but the site tells you how to measure correctly. Quick shipping -boat store usa $109.99

          Send SPBFAN a PM as well. He might be able to help.
          Reality is only an illusion that occurs due to a lack of alcohol.
