    Steering Conversion

    I'm hoping by posting here I can find someone that can help! I recently purchased a dual cable NFB Rack Steering system for my 1978 Cajun. I presently have a single cable rack system on the boat and now that I have a much better system, hope to be able to get it installed quickly.

    I've called my "normal" places and the cost of the new parts is skyhigh! Is there anyone here that would have the OB end parts I need so I can use my new steering? I have a 1978 Johnson 150 (150TL78S) and need the dual cable connector kit. Most new kits I have found cost more than the steering did! I'm hoping someone has converted their steering over to hydraulic and still has the parts OR have blown an engine and will sell me the parts off theirs. Please IM me or email me at kf4pfw at gmail.com with pics and prices.
