The kit pairs SeaStar's Xtreme steering cable design with a Xtreme Tilt NFB helm and a Sport Tilt mechanism to deliver a low-effort, low-lost-motion mechanical steering system with a smooth release of the no-feedback clutch and strong holding power. The Sport Tilt mechanism provides 48 degrees of tilt across 5 adjustment positions, letting the helm be angled to suit different driving positions and physiques.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth the steering cable and the spent travel tube use a quick-connect feature, which speeds up installation, and the kit installs in the same mounting pattern and bracket location used by most current SeaStar rotary steering systems, so it typically requires little to no dash modification. The Xtreme steering cable uses splined ridges on the inner liner to keep close contact with the core while still allowing it to glide freely, supporting high steering loads with reduced friction for extended cable life. The helm is built with a zinc and plated steel gear train for durability and steering efficiency, in a small, light footprint designed to fit small or tight dash helm stations. This kit is intended for single-station boats with a single non-power-assisted outboard engine (up to V-6) and minimal engine flutter or steering instability. SeaStar always recommends No-Feedback (NFB) helms for outboard applications, and this kit's Xtreme steering cable is designed to work only with Xtreme helms. The kit is made, designed, and assembled in the USA and is backed by a two-year recreational user warranty against manufacturing defects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e SeaStar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e SSX17717\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Xtreme Tilt NFB Steering Kit, 17 Feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteering Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e No Feedback (NFB) Tilt Rotary Steering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTilt Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTilt Adjustment Positions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKit Contents:\u003c\/strong\u003e SHX97606 Xtreme Tilt NFB Helm, SH91800B Sport Tilt Mechanism, SSCX64XX Xtreme QC Steering Cable, hardware and instruction sheets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black, Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zinc and plated steel (helm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e ABYC Safety Standards, ISO\/IMCI\/NMMA Certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made, designed, and assembled in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 808282298821\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two-year recreational user warranty against manufacturing defects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for single-station boats with a single non-power-assisted outboard engine, up to a V-6, and minimal engine flutter or steering instability.
