My steering is a stiff on my boat. I have a 1986 Ranger 320V. I am having a hard time finding one do to everyone wants apart # that i don't have. And my boat is a 16' boat so would i just measure from steering wheel back to motor to get a length. Sorry I have never had to replace one and have no idea. I did take it lose from the motor and the motor turns free. And at the point where the shaft runs through the motor to hook up to the linkage is all fine. is there anything i need to check at the wheel. It is rack pinion steering. Thanks
