Building an 88 baja 240 with a bravo and a 177 blown 468 on a tight budget, Like a price on the mayfair add on and will my stock steering gear from 88 be compatible with it ??. Boat is not comfortable past the high 60's so it is time. If you want to reccomend something else I am all ears.

Hi there,
Depending how much room you have to mount the ram you can go with a Mayfair by Hardin Marine full hyd. dual ram system (part#137-9401) for $3299.99 plus shipping. This system would require the ram to mount 19.5" off the crank centerline. If you do not have enough room due to your swim platform then you would need to upgrade to a space saver kit (137-9511) which would only require about 15.5" from the crank center line over to mount the ram. That system would run you $3799.99 plus shipping. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks,
Brad

On my AT it is an Imco unit. The system I put on the other Tantrum is a Mayfair dual ram set up. I do like the way the Mayfair is attached to the drive. On the other hand I do like the way the the fluid transfer tubes on the Imco units are built into the steering ram brackets. Here is a shot of mine

I'd like to see if the Mayfair drive bracket will work with the Imco rams. The Imco endcap is attached to the drive by drilling into the drive and tapping it for the attachment bolts.
