Cable Buddy Works Well
Not sure why some folks have trouble with Cable Buddy. There is no need to remove engine to install. Back cable out under the helm will free cable from engine. Installed Cable Buddy on two engines with little effort.
Some leakage around nuts may occur, but this can be eliminated with 7/16 nylon washers or
7/16 O rings. You just can't beat Buddy Lube.
It is like power steering.

Not so Hot
This is a good lubricant, but the delivery system will not work. Need a pressure delivery system.

Money Well Spent!
Completely fixed the steering problems on a boat I just bought with a 2010 Suzuki outboard. I bought both this kit and the Lube II nut for the other side of the steering cable tube. The steering is soooo smooth now when before you had to steer with both hands to even try to get the motor to barely turn. Installation was not too hard and only took about an hour to complete. Worth every penny.

Not always east to install
I installed this on a 16 ft bowrider. Since the steering cable on this boat goes through a hole in the cap,I had to remove the motor ro install the nut. It is also necessary to use thread tape on the nut before drilling the hole since if you do not the nut leaks. This was not even mentioned in the instructions but definately should have been. The lubrication does free up the cable but without sealing the nut it makes a mess. With a few improvements (sealer included and better instructions) this could be a great product

I have a 16 FT 1986 Bayling Capri Bowrider with a 85 HP Force outboard. The steering is a Telflex rack and pinion no feedback system, similar to your SS151, which I purchased from Overton's to replace to orginal system which stiffened up. Now this steering system is stiffing up and has become hard to steer. Will the Cable Buddy product help to correct this problem? How do you mount the lube collar on the cable?
