Im seeing my big motor moving when trailering, especially around corners………I have seen a small plastic bracket that slips over both sides of the exposed steering, looks like a double clam. Can anyone direct me to a source for those?Thanks

They work GREAT! I bought a set a few months ago and cannot believe I waited so long to do so. Just remember to take them off before you launch the boat.

Made my own.Get some 1 inch plastic (PVC) conduit (Grey stuff) measure your length needed.Take a Dremel moto tool and cut out strip about 1/2″ wide to slip over Hydraulic steering arm.Got her made for about $4.00 for 20 of them.Times are tough!!!
