Has anyone removed the pedestal looking at the underside I think is unlikely it will come off and go back on without also removing the plate it is fitted on as one of the bolts is vey difficult to get at. Does anyone have any ideas on the best way to release the plate as it appears to be glued on.

I have now carried out the mod to the steering stops by unbolting the floor pedestal and steering rod. I do not have teak flooring and I managed to get a small bottle jack under the rear of the floor to put a little pressure on whilst cutting through the sealant with a sharpened filler knife. The grp floor section is bonded to the aluminium plate . I then drilled through the original holes for the stops reamed out the grp and put the bolts in from above then fitted the stops back on with nuts and washers. The stops are now secure and fitted as I gather they should have been and the base of the pedestal covers the bolts completely, also hex bolts are below the surface of the grp.
All in all the job was easier than I expected.

Well done Gordon and thanks for the info. Have you still got 'O' rings around the stops?

Have anyone solved the problem on how to replace the blocking device for the rudder, when you have teak floor in cockpit? 

One of mine blocking device is broken, probably partly due to broken rubber O-rings. This blocking device x 2 is crucial in preventing fatal damage on the steering mechanics. The rubber rings you can get for the price of nothing, and replace the old with news ones in less than a minute  -  so in my opinion they should be replaced every year.

This is interesting! My H320 doesn't have the rubber rings. Where can I get them? What is their sizes? Clearly they are supposed to be there.

Yes this is why i was hoping to get the size. it looks like the overall size is 60mm (2-3/8"). I am thinking also i can get a piece of rubber hose same diameter and put over it.
