DD26 Fishing Generation 2 Mean Stops Steeringinterchangable clips
Our new patent pending design allows fitment for hydraulic steering systems with 3.75″ and/or 4″ of exposed steering rod on each side of the engine and will allow fitment with steering rods with diameters of 16mm, 3/4″, 20mm and 7/8″.
The way this system works is that the standard steering locks you purchasedwill come with the 3/4″ clips attached already. Those clips result in a 4″ width. Should you have a hydraulic steering system that has a different width or diameter, you simply can purchase the proper clips for your set up and switch them out at your convenience. Additional clips come in the following set ups:

• 16mm diameter providing total unit width of 3.75″
• 20mm diameter providing total unit width of 3.75″
• 7/8″ diameter providing total unit width of 4″

Each of these kits comes with 4 steering lock clips.

Fitment of a hydraulic steering lockhas NOTHING to do with the ENGINE itself. So if you have a Mercury Engine it has nothing to do with the steering system. Its all about which hydraulic steering system you have.
A good guide of common fitment is:(but recommended to measure first)

• Seastarsteering systems – Usually 4″ steering locks 3/4″ Diameter (most common) (These clips come standard with the DD26 Gen 2 Mean Stops)
• Seastar extra heavy tournament – Usually 4″ steering locks with 7/8″ diameter
• Baystarsteering systems – Usually 3.75″ steering locks with 16mm Diameter
• Mercury steering systems – Usually 3.75″ steering locks with20mm Diameter
• Uflexsteering systems – Usually 3.75″steering locks with 20mm Diameter Measure first

These second generation clips do not fit first generation mean stops!
