paulogil,

How many steering rams are installed onboard? f more than on steering ram is installed, then please indicate whether the steering rams are install in series or in parallel.
just one.
paulogil,

It is recommended that a T70157 EV-200 Hydraulic Pack be purchased/installed for this application.
Can you specify the RAM capacity of my steering cylinder asy ?
Paulo,

You recently specified that the subject hydraulic ram was the Ultraflex Model:UC128-OBF ... this ram has a cubic capacity of 120cc. Are you seeking information for a different steering ram? If so, it is recommended that the steer ram's manufacturer be contacted should the ram's capacity not be stamped onto the ram.
Sorry Chuck , I got the wrong information with my seller. My right sterring ram is this photo . And the Mercury part number 8m0054993 and 92-862014Q1 helm . Therefore , I believe the EV- 100 could be used ?
Paulo,

Unfortunately, we don't have any data on the subject hydraulic steering ram. It is recommended that Mercury Marine be contacted to object the steering ram's cubic capacity.
