Sea-Doo Steering Cable RXT / RXT-X / Wake – OEM 277001438 / 277001578 / 277001555 (2002–2014)
Overview
The steering cable is one of the most stressed components of your jet ski: it transmits every movement of the handlebars to the propulsion nozzle. A worn, stiff, or corroded cable leads to imprecise steering, abnormal vibrations, and, in extreme cases, loss of control at high speeds. This replacement cable is designed for Sea-Doo RXT, RXT-X, and Wake models from 2002 to 2014, and directly replaces OEM Bombardier part numbers 277001438, 277001578, and 277001555.
Manufactured to strict quality control standards, it offers extended service life and stable performance from the first use. Direct installation, no modifications required.
