This is the linkage hardware used when your kicker is a Yamaha EFI in that 20 to 25 HP range and you are installing the Reactor 40 Kicker Autopilot system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Yamaha EFI outboards from 2019 and newer in the 20 HP and 25 HP class\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinks the Reactor 40 Kicker Autopilot steering and throttle actuators to the outboard control points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports an autopilot install where you want controlled steering and throttle response at the kicker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntended for Reactor 40 Kicker Autopilot applications on a Yamaha EFI kicker setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis linkage set is meant for Yamaha EFI outboards (model year 2019 and newer) in the 20 HP and 25 HP range when they are being controlled by a Reactor 40 Kicker Autopilot. Confirm your exact engine model and the way your controls are rigged on the boat, since small differences around the throttle area can affect how linkage hardware sits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf your kicker is outside the 20 to 25 HP EFI range or is older than 2019, this is not the right linkage set for the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is a mechanical fit-up at the outboard to couple the autopilot actuators to the engine steering and throttle points. Before tightening everything down, check clearance at full tilt and through the full steering range, and make sure nothing contacts the cowling, hoses, or wiring as the actuator moves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter the linkage is mounted, cycle the movement by hand to confirm it moves freely, then complete the Reactor 40 Kicker Autopilot setup so actuator travel matches your engine’s motion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the linkage installed, the Reactor 40 Kicker Autopilot can command both steering and throttle on a compatible Yamaha EFI kicker. That helps when you are running long trolling passes, holding a heading in wind or current, or keeping the boat tracking cleanly while you manage lines and gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt suits boats that rely on a Yamaha 20 to 25 HP EFI kicker for slow-speed control and want autopilot functionality that reaches the engine, not just the helm display.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eLinkage hardware sits in a spot that gets wet, sees salt, and vibrates. Rinse it after saltwater use, keep moving points free, and periodically re-check alignment and fasteners, especially after trailering or the first few trips after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269572980917,"sku":"QBP923241","price":199.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1300729_qbp923241.webp?v=1771544662","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp923241","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
