This is the most popular steering cable-to-engine connection method for outboards with a standard tilt tube. This installation requires the use of a link arm which can be purchased from the engine manufacturer (and we recommend using the engine manufacturer's link arm). Most new outboards designed for control box and remote steering include a link arm as standard.
