Those are very good controls that ready has , I used the CH5600 myself But the SR are real nice. ,
beware of cheap copy's ( china) , they may look the same but are not as well made and the cable hold downs can slip . ( that can be dangerous )
Teleflex Morse makes a first class control .

What kind do you have now and what is wrong with them. I have morse controls and have completely dissassembled, lubed, reassembled them and they are tight and bulletproof. I am looking for a gear control by morse as the flybridge one had been replaced by one made in china. On the chrome cover it has two screws to hold it one on the side port and starboard, similiar to the ones pictured but the screws are small and on the sides.

My levers were loose and sloppy, which was corrected by my dissassembly and reassembly, but I need another gear shifter so they all wil be alike. :)
