    SV27R stinger bushing question

    Hi,
    I have SV27R stingers that I'm using for my BJ26 dual.
    http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...qub7877&cat=76

    Using the octura .150 cable with 3/16 shaft left and right rotation.

    http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...oct-oc150R-24c

    Do I HAVE to use the SV27R brass bushing?
    http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...od=dh-aqub7884

    Or can I use the octura sleeve bearings?

    thanks for the help

    Since the Sv27 and UL-1 bushings fit into the stuffing tube (not the actual stinger or strut housing) unlike other stinger/ strut manufacturers your going to have to verify the outer diameter of the Octura sleeve. I dont own one so I cant help you there. I do have an AeroMarine bearing/ bushing and I can tell you it does not fit inside the SV27 or UL-1 tube.

      in the first link, to the stinger, in the description it states you can use them when building a new boat, but you'll need the bushing. hmmm, time to investigate.

        The octura 3/16 lead teflon bushings will fit, thats what I'm using in a 30" leopard powered boat with a SV stinger.
        Using the brass bushing in my SV only because everybody else I will be running SVs against is using the brass bushing.
        LOL Stock is Stock! Kids to old guys everybody has the same thing!
        Use 2 of the bushings and make sure the are running on the solid part of the shaft not the flex, you must insert one part way down the stinger.
        If my boats upside down then who owns the one I thought I was driving the last two laps?

          awesome. Would running 3 of them in there be a bad thing? I have em, so I figured I might as well use em. lol
