Has anyone here had success polishing/smoothing out their steering cylinder shaft?
Is there a place to purchase this replacement part or have one refurbished.

I have a used baystar unit I am going to install but need to smooth out the shaft some so it does not cause any seals to leak.

I recently added a baystar system to my 2007 Yamaha 70TLR and used a dremel with a flex shaft and a sanding head. Worked great.

I may have misunderstood what you are trying to do. I was referring to cleaning out the tilt tube not the steering shaft itself. Good luck!
