Tightening stock steering wheel

[buckyten]

Have a 2003 prostar 205V steering wheel nut is real tight but still wiggles a little, any suggestions, thanks

Is the wheel loose on the shaft or is the shaft assembly moving (loose)?

Not sure which helm the 2003 has - however it if you take off the steering wheel and the room the plastic cowling it will expose the helm steering joint. There might be - mine has it but I have an older boat - a hex head bolt to tight the helm assembly. There also might be two depending on model. See picture - arrow pointing to bolt.

Thanks, loose on the shaft
