Performance & Practical Benefits
On the water, both levers move with a steady, confident feel, making it easy to confirm shifts without looking down. The shift action stays smooth even when the hull is pounding through chop, which helps keep the boat settled during quick transitions. The simple layout also cuts down on distractions so you can stay focused on running your line. It’s a no-nonsense setup for drivers who want clean, repeatable shifting.

Why Buy OEM
OEM controls keep DTS communication sharp, which helps avoid hesitation or uneven shifts. Mercury’s tuning stays consistent season after season, so the feel doesn’t drift as the control ages. It’s a dependable choice for performance setups that demand reliable gear changes.

FAQ
Q1: How do I know if a shift-only setup makes sense for my boat?
A: If your throttle is handled separately and you want simple, dedicated shifting, this layout usually fits well.

Q2: Does it need setup after installation?
A: Yes—just a quick DTS configuration to get everything synced.

Q3: Can it be used in saltwater?
A: Yes, just rinse the helm area after use and keep up with normal care.

Q4: What should I check before mounting?
A: Make sure you’ve got enough port-side top-mount space and room for the harness below.

Q5: What if a lever starts feeling rough or inconsistent?
