DREWFAB DF1117 Jet Drive Steering Pin Kit | Smoother Steering for Droop Snoots & Nozzle Adapters
Pickup currently not available
Description
The DREWFAB DF1117 Jet Drive Steering Pin Kit replaces the factory nyliners, cross bolts, and pins in your jet drive nozzle adapter, eliminating steering slop and transforming your handling with true one-finger steering.
Each kit includes precision-machined 304 stainless steel pins that bolt directly to the nozzle adapter using four #10 screws per pin. The result is a tighter, smoother, and more reliable steering response, ideal for high-performance jet boats and racing applications.
⚠️ Important: These steering pins will not work with a rudder. You must remove the rudder or use only one pin. Please read the full description and watch the instructional video before ordering.
