The Rotech's T71FC helm with Planetary Gear Design minimizes steering effort. It provides you with more evenly distributed stresses on the steering wheel. This one-of-a-kind design also provides a larger wear surface, reducing wasted motion and increasing longevity. This helm, centered on the primary drive shaft, takes up less space behind the dash and is a straight "drop-in" replacement for rival systems, requiring no new holes. The M66 Universal Rotary Steering Cable with stainless steel output fittings is included in the Rotech package for optimal lifespan and smooth steering. T71FC helm, X34 90 degree bezel, M66 steering cable are included in the kit.
