This rack is make of porcelain or some sort of porous material. it should have been steel what is it called because I can't find anything on it. This rack is bolted to the transom .
the rack would be the inner transom. Can this be repaired in the boat. Looks like it is made of porcelain. Can an epoxy hold it. I don't no why it cracked while install the rebuilt steering ram.
the steering ram is held in the boat off the transom it called the inner transom it is a very porous molded rack with smooth finish. for some reason it cracked and will not hold the piston cylinder in position when steering is used.
Ayuh,.... Got a picture,..?? The P/S unit is bolted to the inner transom plate, as far as I know,....
Usually 2 big but short bolts, one from above, 'n one from below,....
