  • My seals on my SeaStar hydraulic steering were leaking, so I replaced them with inexpensive Amazon ones! They work just as good and are less than half the cost! These are easy enough to do and you will save a ton of money, so don't be afraid to give it a shot.
    This is the seal kit that I bought.

    Thank You for this video. I was going to pay someone to do this because I was afraid it would be to hard, but after watching your video, it looks like it's pretty simple. Thank You again. Can't wait to get it done.

    I like that idea. Takes a longer time to get all the bubbles out, but you don’t waste any fluids by bleeding. Having to have a container and filter back etc, it’s just a hassle.

    Thank you for the great instructional video. I have the same steering system on my boat and it doesn't need maintenance right now, but when it does I can do this on my own thanks to you!

    Great Job, Thank You. I did my bay boat a few years ago and used a Marine Tech Tools Pin Wrench that worked great to unscrew the seals. The Tool is expensive but well made. Re visiting this issues as I need to now fix the seals on my offshore boat. Thanks again.

      Thanks for watching! The cheap tool worked, but I can definitely see the need for a good one.

    Appreciate the video. Once the parts come in I’m going to tackle this project. My seastar is 11 years old and first time to leak. I did purchase better seals from five star marine.

    I bought one of these kits and the bridge fittings leaked like crazy. Got it from Amazon but they couldn't keep a seal at all. The part on helm was okay though

    • @maskedmanfishing

      I guess I got a good one. It's still working great!

    Great video thanks. Was wondering if I may need to do this since I’m always turning the wheel to keep it straight. Bled the system twice and don’t see any leaks. Your thoughts?

    • @maskedmanfishing
      @maskedmanfishing  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I doubt it. If it's leaking you will see the oil somewhere.
