## ⚙️ Key Features

-   For 950 to 1030 mm between engine centres
-   4.627 kg
-   Supersedes 3863427
-   44 applications across D series engines, TSK, DPH and DPR drives

## 🔌 Function

Links the steering of two drives so they turn together, keeping both units tracking at the same angle through the whole steering range.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   The two drives no longer turning to matching angles
-   Slack or knock felt at the helm as the wheel is reversed
-   Rod ends or ball joints worn, notchy or with visible play
-   Corrosion or seizure on the bar and its threads
-   Boat pulling to one side when the helm is centred

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Measure the distance between engine centres before ordering - kit 3594639 covers the longer 1050 to 1240 mm span and is not interchangeable with this one
-   Set the drive alignment carefully after fitting and lock the adjusters, then check the full lock-to-lock travel for binding
-   Grease the joints and check them at every service; a seized joint loads the whole steering system
