This winter, I plan to rebuild the rudder/steering assembly on my 1984 h27. One of the remaining questions is whether there is some kind of seal/bearing in the steering flanges. The pics below shows the parts.
The first pic starts with the fiberglass hull/nipple and the 3" rubber hose (now 30 yrs old). Above the hose, in pic 2, are the steering flanges. These are held together by 4 small bolts. Sticking out of the top of the top flange is the prop shaft. The question is whether there is a bearing or seal somewhere in there? Any help is appreciated.
