How to Measure Steering Cables
Replacement of Existing Cable:
If possible, find the part number stamped on the plastic jacket of the old cable.
If you removed the old cable, measure for the replacement cable as follows:
Order Length: L= "A" dimension + "B" dimension
Example: L=440mm+2730mm=3170mm
To order in foot length, divide for 3170mm and round up to the next whole foot
3170mm=11'8". round up to 12"
New Installation:
Measure cable routing path from wheel center line to engine connection, as follows:
A=Center line of wheel gunwale (or deck, if routed downward)
B=Dash to transom
C=Gunwale to center line of cable connection at centered tiller
For Cable Installation Through The Engine Tilt Tube:
Add A, B&C+6", then round up to the next foot. Order that length cable.
For cables mounted to transom, splash well or stringer:
Add A, B&C, then subtract 6" and round up to the next foot. Order that length cable.
