you wouldn't be able to brace your feet for paddling if you modified them to steer a rudder. this would result in your rudder shifting every time that you pulled the paddle. A rudder system with a two part mechanism so that you can brace your feet on the pegs and steer with a hinged or sliding pedal above the pegs. if you have a sit on top with molded heel braces then you could probably do it. For a Kayak without molded braces, maybe if you bought two sets you could use a lower set for your pegs, and an uper sliding set for a rudder. for the price, it wouldn't hurt to try. rudder pedals are about $70 U.S. you wouldn't be able to brace your feet for paddling if you modified them to steer a rudder. this would result in your rudder shifting every time that you pulled the paddle.

They are not designed for this but they could be modified by removing the plastic on the slider that locks into the base and drilling a hole to attach rudder line. You would need to attach line close to base to reduce friction. I am not sure how long they would last with the constant movement using the rudder. I work for a company that hires kayaks and the rudder slider assemblys wear out after about 1000 hours of paddling and they are designed to move. For the price I'd give it a try. Good luck

no, these were bought to replace the foot pegs already in the kayak. They adjust front to back for shorter person or taller person to rest their feet while paddling

Too all out there. These are like wood screws. If it's a wood stock, they will work.

I bought one of these and I am not a fan. You are better off just tying the line with a knot. These aluminum adjusters wear and tear the line where they grip it. In my experience, knots work better.

I would contact Control Products Inc at (952)448-2217 or Email them at customerservice@controlproductsinc.com for the answer! I believe that it will work if it is a single line! Craig

I have not used them for this, but the connectors are not all that strong. You would want to zip tie the sides together so they don't pop apart from the movement.

I guess you could, but they are much too large for that. They have sharp edges, are 3" thick at the sides and would cut your dash up even if you could figure out how to balance them on the dash.

Yes, this is just an adjustment tool. It can be thought of as a wrench for making adjustments.

I would suggest that you research the HiTec web site or send them an email. I use it for rudder control on a model sailboat so I don't need 180.

I don't see why not. I'm not sure how long the pins have to b on your receiver and on the adjusting part of the slide. There might b some slack in them but if u don't mind then the locks r great. They work great. They have nice thick keys for them. Only bad part is is that since I starting launching boat in the ocean I have noticed a little rust on the outside of locks. They still work great though.

Hmm. They are very easy to use so I believe they would work for you better than ones that need to be adjusted. I LOVE these!

If you play with the adjusters a little you should be able to align them properly. Don't tighten everything completely until they're squared up.

I do not know this. I just know they are not made very well and very hard to use. I would find something else if I were you, good luck!

I have always found adequate latitude for any type of boat/trailer combination. Placement of bracket for coarse adjustment, and nut tightness for fine adjustment should work for most situations. J.C.

Yes but no bigger than a #10 machine screw, they are small. they make a slip joint pliers that will work on larger stuff

You can adjust the length of these, as well as stretch them, so they can go which ever direction you need. have used them across, up and down, as well as caty-corner.

Yes, they can be turned in an partial arc, thus in one plane. If the question is whether you can adjust them in height, then the answe is 'no'.

Yes. I have used them with cheap mini-servos and all the name brand standard sized servos.
