Urgent Ultraflex Help!

I've broken a nut my ultraflex hydraulic steering ram, it's a threaded locknut with an Allan key bolt in it. I'm in Shouthampton and need one ASAP. Does anyone know where I can get one? Thanks in advance.

The model is: ultraflex uc128/1
Made in 2004
SN no: 043523-0007

Also any ideas on how to fit it?

Thanks Alex

All sorted now thanks to Chris at Kevin Mole Outboards who found one and lent me his tools to fit it as they were too busy.

That is the second time they have helped me and it only cost £5.

Thanks lads

I have no idea but both faces look corroded so I guess it's been cracked a while, it looks like the grub screw had been over tightened?

All sorted now though

Good to hear... now that's good service. Better add them to your Christmas card list.
