Customer Reviews for VEVOR Hydraulic Outboard Steering Kit, 90HP, Marine Boat Hydraulic Steering System, with Helm Pump Two-Way Lock Cylinder and 24 Feet Hydraulic Steering Hose, for Single Station Single-Engine Boats

Easy to install. NOTE: Make sure that you look at what kind of engine it is going on! This will NOT one size fits all! The engine attachment may have to be changed to accommodate the engine that it is going on. Other than that, I have put 2 of these on for 2 different customers and they are both happy with the product. Looking to purchase another for one more customer, and possibly one for myself.

This was easy to install and it seems to be working well. Compared to the double cable steering I replaced with this system, this hydraulic steering is SWEET! (Up-date, glands are replaceable) I noticed the glands don't seem to be replaceable like the Sea Star cylinder glands are, which might prove to be an issue in the future because the glands break down over time and need replacing at some point. But, I bought this because it was about half the cost of the Sea Star system and it is of high enough quality for me to say that I am satisfied. The instructions aren't very clear and the illustrations aren't accurate but like others have said, if you're installing this yourself you likely have the ability to figure it out on your own like I did.

Just as good of a product as Sea-Star/Bay-Star, no leaks, easy install, re buildable pump if needed also you can rebuild cylinder or replace for cheap $$. very smooth operation, just get one.

This has been a great replacement for my old and tired cable steering.The build quality is first rate - I can't imagine anyone being disappointed.Installation was straight forward on a 90HP Mercury SeaPro.However, throw away the destructions, which are virtually unintelligible. My only criticism.Download instructions from other suppliers of more expensive, surprisingly similar products, hint, hint.Photo #3 shows how I routed the hoses into my motor well. Tidy and watertight.I couldn't be happier!

easy to install with some mechanical back ground, hand wife help with bleeding air out of system, turn steering wheel until you get back pressure, then open valve, no different then bleeding brakes on vehicle, its good too have two quarts of Hyd steering oil, catching bleed off oil and refilling fill bottle worked great.

The steering on my Ranger boat seized and ripped apart, so I decided to retrofit it with hydraulic. Vevor was the least expensive option. To remove all of the old system took a long time, considering 30 years of corrosion. To install the new system took maybe 4 hours. I had two minor issues on installation; 1) The arms did not reach far enough to bolt to the cylinder shafts, so I took a 3-pound hammer and bent them further. A $500 kit, so no turning back now. Next, the flare nut that was included had stripped out, so I used the original brass that I had. The strength and quality of the nut it is questionable. Other than that, everything else installed smoothly, and I had it out on the water just a few hours ago.

Study what Rick you were steaks they do not tell you it takes a different bracket to change it fluid very expensive works OK should have bought SeaStar about the same price of the time you’re done

Instructions are bit sketchy,, the unit. Works well, but not one finger steering. A finished plumbing diagram would have been useful. All in all I am satisfied.

Easy to install. For the price it steers my stratos like a dream

Installation was straight forward. No big problems. Hardest part is of course bleeding the system. Once that was done all works well and I have no problem tilting it into the motor well.
