    *upgrading steering

    I'm looking to replace or upgrade my steering system on nitro nx 882. I currently have telefles dual rack system. I went out two weeks ago and my steering is really stiff! I have a really hard time trailering it back on from the water. Ive checked out the bay star hk4200a 3 for about 529$ I shopped ebay found the best price. I want to hear what ppl have to say about upgrading or replacing it with the same system. Also if theres a way to lube or repair that stiffy steering id live to gear about itEdit Post***Reply***Reply With Quote****

    Baystar is not recommended for bass boat applications.

    Seastar or a Uflex Design system would be well suited for your application.

    Definitely go hydraulic!
