Thank you to everyone who gave advice on my steering cable replacement. As it turned out I needed the 11' cable, not the 10' cable for the best fit and look.
I removed three of the four outboard mounting bolts leaving the top, port side bolt loosened. The motor tilted easily port-to-starboard and cable was easy to remove. There is no need to remove the outboard. It helps to have another person remove/install the cable ram into the tilt tube.
I could have saved 15-20% had I not been so impatient and had ordered online.
Thanks, again.
Rick
