Rob, here is a link to some photos of my idler project. I stuck my phone under the idler plate and took photos and video and thanked the gods that it wasn't completely rusted through like a lot of others boats were. I removed the pedestal and broke an aluminum bolt which sucked. Mcmaster to the

I'm replacing the cables on my Edson Steering. The chain is in excellent condition. But the cables and the conduit showed signs of wear. I can't inspect the cables, and once pulled out of the conduit they won't go back in if there is any bend to the cable. I used 1\4 SS 304 7x19 cable, 4 aluminum

I solved the hollow river issue by using large SS bolts (short but wide) drilled through the center to accommodate the steering cables. The machine shop that watercut the new SS plate did them on a lathe. The whole assembly cost less than $500 CDN. Al Liles C/40+ Vancouver BC Please show your

I noticed when visiting a local (Victoria BC) used and consignment shop that they had an Edson cable / chain kit on the shelf. Other than a quick look I didn't pay too much attention (obviously cable diameter was too large for my 27) but if you are interested I could explore further. Peter On

Thanks lots of good feedback if you can share that would be helpful.  I’m in salt water and have noticed rust at bottom of binnicle leading me to believe this will be required to rebuild the idler plate -RobSent from my iPhoneOn Aug 2, 2023, at 1:12 PM, CHARLES SCHEAFFER via CnC-List wrote:

I replaced the idler on my 34R using the Edson aluminum product and learned the hard way what was needed. I wrote up my journey for my 34/36 group and can share it with anyone interested. If your idler pulley sheaves are in good condition, I would recommend you send the old idler plate to

Jenna found our steering cable only attached by one bunch of the (?11)-strand cable a few years ago while I was seining in AK. She and friends reswaged a new piece of cable to our old chain and I have kept an eye on it since, periodically lubing. I find the grease port in the rudder post is not

Hi Rob, If you are in salt water, plan on replacing the idler pulley bracket. The existing bracket is mild steel, and where it sits on our boats is exposed to salt air. By the way, I had to send. My old bracket to Edson so they could reuse the pulleys because the new ones that came with the
