    Sea star Hydraulic steering seal kit question

    Model is HC6345 (looked at sticker), but after a hour of searching for a seal kit, can’t find one that matches that model. Plenty of kits on Amazon that fit a bunch of different models (see below which is for seal kit HS5157).

    Wondering if the HS5157 would fit? Thanks

    Periodically i clean and smear a little lithium on the steering shafts. Also my trim shafts. Hopefully the seals will last longer. I have already replaced them once.
