Steering Pin Sealing Area Corrosion Repair (Boring and Sleeving) - On-site with housing still in boat | Transom Repair Service

Mercruiser Transom Shield Steering Pin Corrosion Repair - On-Site Service

A common corrosion problem with Mercruiser transom shields: the seal under the steering pin bush can allow water around the sealing surface, which leads to corrosion and, eventually, a passage for water to leak into the boat.

Sawley's has designed a system and tooling to bore out the housing and fit a sleeve into it, restoring the sealing area. This repair can be carried out either in our workshop or on-site with the transom shield still in the vessel.

The repair involves precise boring and sleeving to restore the function and durability of the gimbal housing, improving performance and extending the lifespan of your Mercruiser components.

🛠️ Service Notes

• The housing must be bare (all components removed) and clean before work begins
• The upper sealing area is sleeved and a new brass bush and seal are fitted
