Commander Side Mount Hydraulic Outboard Steering Kit - COMKIT-SPORT
For Single  Outboards up to 135HP* (optimum 90hp if 4 stroke) or dual outboards Counter-rotating up to 250HP total.

You can easily upgrade your boat's steering! Get rid of your boat's old cable steering and install this smooth hydraulic steering kit.

Hydrive Side or tube-mount type cylinders are very popular because of the ease of fitting and the economical price.

 ​This kit offers a very simple upgrade from cable steering to hydraulic steering for vastly improved results.

Easy to install: 

  • The side mount cylinder simply screws into the thread on your outboard's tilt tube - see our Tips and Advice Tab for more explanation and an example picture.
  • Suits  2 stroke outboards up to 135HP and 4 stroke outboards up to 90HP (sensible conservative recommendation).
    These side mount kits are very economical, and very simple to fit. 

     
  • Before you change the steering system in your boat to a Side mount cylinder you need to check that there is enough clearance for the cylinder to fit - see the dimensional diagram below and dimensional PDF diagram attached.

The main differences between different hydraulic steering kits are the quality of the materials used in the cylinder and helm pump. 
Hydrive is a very reputable, long established Austraian brand that is exported  world wide.

Driving a boat with hydraulic steering is much smoother than steering boats with the push pull cable steering systems.

Tips and Installation Advice:

Hydrive Side or Tube-mount type cylinders are very popular because of the ease of fitting and the economical price.
It offers a very simple upgra
de from cable steering to hydraulic steering for vastly improved results.
Selection of this type of steering is entirely dependent on the HP of the outboard - it will suit all outboards up to (and including) 90HP as the type of mount is universal to all brands and HP of motors that are fitted with tilt-tubes.
(The tilt tube is the tube at the front of the outboard where the existing steering cable screws into).
Some very small outboards do not have tilt-tubes and therefore must use the same pivoting bracket that is attached to the customer’s current cable.
Fitting is very simple as the hydraulic cylinder screws directly onto the threaded tilt-tube in the same location as the existing cable steering.
It connects to the tiller arm of the outboard using the standard drag-link already connecting the cable

For smaller outboards (up to 90HP)  these side mount kits are economical and very simple to fit.

NOTE: Below is an example of how a Hydrive side mount cylinder attaches to most outboards - however it is not the exact cylinder that is supplied with this kit.
