SeaStar Classic Tilt Helm
Fit perfect into our dash and easy to install, works great on our Sundancer

New Unit was plug/play but front seal was squeaky
The good news: It was a direct replacement for a 22 year old SeaStar unit. Same bolt patterns; same hydraulic hoses.
The bad news: upon installation, and after bleeding, the front seal was dry and was crazy squeaky. SeaStar tech support was very helpful; but they told me I had to unbolt the new unit and remove the tilt mechanism so I could access and lubricate the front seal. At least I didn't need to disconnect the hoses or bleed again. Squeak is gone. Looking forward to 22 years of service from this unit! -
HH6541-3 Tilt Helm pump
Appreciate the help finding a replacement for my old helm pump. Directions were excellent, had to drill 2 new holes, attached the hoses and installed in my boat with no problems or issues. Boat handles great!

Perfect fit replacement
Ordered to replace failed HH5741 steering in my 2003 Sea Ray. This helm is the replacement to the discontinued HH5741. It was a Perfect fit drop in replacement. Be advised that the helm uses an upgraded ORB fitting for the steering hose connections and comes with 2 in the kit. FYI, the old fittings do not work on the new pump. Other than that minor nuisance, it’s a great product. Sea Tech was extremely helpful with shipping and firmest information.
